Another stunning waterfront cafe and restaurant. Very informal. But great food and views out over the South Coast of Wellington at Lyall Bay. Sit outside if it's sunny and watch the surfers. The beach is right across the road to go for a walk after breakfast or lunch.

Wellington's best beach. It's a man-made beach. Tonnes of white sand was shipped up from the Abel Tasman National Park to create this beach. In summer time it's the place to be. Always buzzing with people. Swim out to the platform or chill out on the beach. Or just stroll around Oriental Parade to soak in the scene if sitting on the beach isn't your thing. Heaps of places to get coffee and food around here too.

New World Island Bay
6 Medway StDrinks & Nightlife
This is a sneaky little rooftop bar in central Wellington. The entrance is hard to find as there is no signage for it... there is a security guard at the lift by number 58 Taranaki Street. Go in to the lift and click 'Roof' to get there. Certainly worth a stop in for a drink and to take in the cityscape on a beautiful day.
