Bayswater is a coastal suburb located on the North Shore of Auckland, New Zealand, situated on a peninsula in the Waitematā Harbour. It lies approximately 3 kilometres south of Takapuna and is part of the Devonport-Takapuna Local Board and the North Shore ward of Auckland Council.
Originally known as O'Neill's Point, the area was subdivided for residential development in 1909 and later renamed Bayswater, likely after the London suburb of the same name. The suburb is characterised by its maritime setting, with ferry services connecting it to Auckland's central business district, and features several heritage sites including the O'Neill’s Point Cemetery and the Takapuna Boating Club.
