Sky Tower - Auckland

The Sky Tower in Auckland is an iconic landmark and the tallest free-standing structure in the Southern Hemisphere, standing at 328 meters (1,076 feet). Opened in 1997, it offers stunning panoramic views of Auckland, the Hauraki Gulf, and beyond. Visitors can take in the scenery from one of three viewing platforms, or for thrill-seekers, experience the SkyJump, a 192-meter leap off the tower, or SkyWalk, where participants walk around the tower's outer ledge, harnessed for safety.

The Sky Tower is part of the SkyCity Auckland complex, which includes a casino, hotels, and a range of dining options, including Orbit 360° Dining, a revolving restaurant that completes a full rotation every hour, offering both exquisite cuisine and unbeatable views.

The tower is also a vital communication hub, housing various transmission equipment. Whether you're interested in the history of Auckland, seeking a dining experience with a view, or craving an adrenaline rush, the Sky Tower is a must-visit attraction that showcases the best of New Zealand’s largest city. It’s open year-round, providing a unique way to experience Auckland day or night.
