The Waiuku Circuit

A curated op-shop route · 4 stops in order. Tap a stop to find it on the map, or open it in directions.

Little Waiuku rewards a slow poke-around. Three charity-and-reuse stops sit within a few blocks of Queen Street, then it's a short run out to Glenbrook Beach for Leanne's designer resale — an easy half-day loop at the bottom of the Āwhitu peninsula.
