West Harbour is a suburb of Waitakere City, located in the west of Auckland. It is named for its location on the western side of the Waitemata Harbour. West Harbour is under the local governance of the Waitakere City Council.

Local features include many public reserves (the most prominent being Luckens Reserve, which in 2014 received a basketball court), two local primary schools, West Harbour School and Marina View School, a Church, and farm land. West Harbour is home to Westpark Marina, a large marina catering to over 600 of private leisure boats and yachts, which was part of the route the Royal Family took during their 2014 visit. As the unique terrain of West Harbour, most of the houses have a magnificent sea view and city view, which makes the suburb become one of the exclusive suburb in Auckland City and home to hundreds of multi million houses and mansions.
