Bucklands Beach is a suburb and beach 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) east of Auckland's CBD in New Zealand. Bucklands Beach was originally a rural farm owned by Alfred Buckland until being developed as a holiday destination for Aucklanders in the 1910s with a regular passenger service to the beach. In the 1950s Bucklands Beach developed as a suburban area following Howick's status as a borough council.
