The Pocket Park

The entrance to Pocket Park.

The Pocket Park is a small urban oasis located in between Port Road and the Hātea Loop Walkway, next to Kotuitui Whitinga footbridge.

Take a break from your shopping or walking the loop to sit and enjoy the colourful murals, river views and established gardens.

Kids will love playing in the large sandpit.

Parking 

Limited on-street parking. Free parking is available at the nearby Bascule Carpark.
