A great lookout with stunning views of Rangitoto Island. From the plaque at the site:
"This reserve is dedicated to commemorate the gallant performance of H.M.S Achilles and the bravery of her captain, officers, and ships company in the victorious naval battle fought in the South Atlantic off the River Plate on December 13th 1939"
