The surrounding waterfront setting can make parking particularly competitive when museum visits coincide with activity around the central city and harbour. Street parking is limited around the museum area (apexrentals.co.nz). Drivers heading to the site should prioritise a named parking building or reserved space rather than relying on finding an available kerbside bay. Downtown Car Park has access from Customs Street West and an overhead walkway to the venue (aucklandconventionbureau.com). ## Walking From Waitematā Station to the Museum Waitematā railway station is the nearest station, 420 m from the site and a 6-minute walk.
