Cape Regina
Cape Reinga is the most northern part of New Zealand.
It is definitely the most northerly tip you can visit and it is simply amazing. In the Maori culture this place considered a sacred site of deep significance.
Cape Reinga guarantees you with the ultimate panoramic view. Follow the walkway from the parking, to find yourself high up on the hillside. Walk down to a lighthouse and viewing platform, all the while overlooking the water that stretches till your eyes can see all around. Look for a good Accommodation in Cambridge North Island for a memorable stay.
90-mile Beach
On the western side just down from Cape Reinga is the misleadingly named “90 Mile Beach”.
In reality it is only 55 miles. But, nonetheless, that is a lot of beach!
This is an incredible part of the country that presents travellers with the chance to explore the endless expanses of sea and sand. It’s a unique sight to behold: colours blend into one, as the sands, sea and sky merge into one.
Bay of Islands
It is easily one of the greatest tourist destinations on the North Island, and it has good reasons too. Comprised of 144 isles it is the home to NZ’s most impressive wildlife and beautiful scenery.
The size, scale and popularity of the Bay of Islands means that there’s a lot you can do here.
Doesn’t matter if it’s hiking, sea kayaking, dolphin & whale watching, or a simple drink or two in one of the many bars and restaurants, there’s something for everyone. You can also find many Affordable Accommodations in North Island dotted around.
In peak season (from November through February) the atmosphere is found to be buzzing as travellers flock to the area. However, despite all of its vibrancy and liveliness, it can also sometimes feel busy. You can definitely far more tourists here than other parts of NZ, which may or may not be your thing.
However, even if you are only planning to visit for the afternoon, the beauty and variety of the place shouldn’t be missed.
