Waiheke Island
Just a 35-minute ferry ride from Auckland will take you to Waiheke Island. The ride itself is refreshing and the sea air will put you immediately into relaxation mode. Here you can reconnect with nature, unwind and create some fabulous memories.
There are many things to enjoy about this island; it offers a blend of lazy beach life, vineyards and wineries, restaurants and artisan creativity. You can explore Stony Batter’s World War II tunnels, visit the Ostend Market or discover the island’s vineyards on a wine tour. Find a deck chair or spread a towel on the beach to relax and enjoy the ocean views after your island adventures. In addition, the island is known for excellent wine, good coffee, and fabulous food.
