There’s never a dull moment in Auckland – the city has something for everyone,<br />

whether you’re looking for stunning scenery, adventure, relaxation or a rich<br />

cultural experience.<br />

If it’s action you’re after, you’re spoilt for choice. There’s mountain biking,<br />

canyoning, skydiving, hiking, snorkelling, quad biking, golf and much more to<br />

keep you moving.<br />

When it comes to wine, you’ll be spoilt for choice. There are four wine regions<br />

within 45 minutes of the central city to explore including Matakana, Kumeu<br />

(New Zealand’s oldest wine region), Clevedon Hills and out in the Hauraki Gulf<br />

there’s Waiheke, the ‘island of wine’.<br />

For something a little unusual climb a volcano – there’s 48 dotted across the<br />

region, many providing spectacular panoramic views of the city.<br />

With its three magnificent natural harbours, island-hopping among some of<br />

the 50 emerald isles in the Hauraki Gulf is a must-do. Go whale and dolphin<br />

spotting, jet boating, sailing, fishing, kayaking or cruising - there’s plenty to<br />

discover on the gulf.<br />
