In a nation where stunning scenery is a given, Auckland doesn’t fail to deliver. A watery wonderland on New Zealand’s North Island, with yachts meandering through its harbours and adjoining Hauraki Gulf, it’s little wonder Auckland is known as the ‘City of Sails’.
It’s also surrounded by more than 48 extinct volcanoes, set against a backdrop of wild and mountainous scenery, the likes of which New Zealand is famed for. If you’re hoping to snap the perfect holiday photographs here, you’ll find no shortage of inspiring vistas vying for a space in your camera roll.

Tauranga is the largest and most populated port in the Bay of Plenty region. This is an appropriate name due to the abundant beaches, rolling white waters, hot mineral springs and even kiwi orchards.

The stunning harbour city, Sydney, is Australia’s oldest and largest urban centre. Gold mining and sheep breeding propelled Sydney’s development, and today it’s the largest port in the entire South Pacific. Mark Twain called it “the wonder of the world”.
