Situated near the Helensville township, Parakai has it's own unique characteristics that set it apart, whilst retaining the "small village" feel. For some, the attraction lies in the natural thermal pools that have been a favourite for visitors and locals alike. This underground spring supplies three recreational pool complexes, motels, private residences and the local rest home. The water is naturally between 60-70 degrees celsius and is famous for its minerals and healing properties. The Hydroslide at Aquatic Park, Parakai Springs is very popular and has been a landmark in Parakai for the last 25 years, still attracting visitors from far and wide today. Fishing and recreational charter boats pick up passengers from Springs Road wharf and the boat ramp there also proves popular for those wanting to access the river that winds through the township. With a small but well-stocked mini mart, restaurants and takeaway bars, Parakai truly has all the necessary attributes that make it a great little suburb, with all the benefits of the surrounding area's adventure parks at Woodhill, Muriwai, Shelly Beach and the South Head Macadamia Nut Farm within a 20 minute drive. What more could you want, with Auckland's C.B.D only 45 minutes away? Come and have a look at Parakai as a way to escape the rat race of the city and breathe in the fresh country air.
