Destinations in New Zealand

New Zealand is a country with two main islands, the North Island and the South Island. Below you will find maps of each island with main cities, townships and attractions. We have marked key places on the map, most of which we've visited. You will also not find other places marked because we have no personal knowledge of those places. Soon enough we will work on filling everything in.

North Island

Run your cursor over the names of cities and townships--slowly, and hold it there to see the name of the destination --then click to link to a description and photos (when available). If there is no link, then we don't currently have information on that town. Occasionally you can scroll over an area that has no name (such as 90-Mile Beach at the northwest part of the North Island under Cape Reinga) because it is more of a region.
