- Rotorua
Rotorua has been described as one of the geothermal wonders of the world. Centuries of intense volcanic activity has created the ideal environment for hot springs, bubbling mud pools and some spectacular geysers. The whole area is blessed with a variety of wildly coloured pools, lakes and spooky-looking mineral deposits, with various main centres such as Wai-o-tapu, Te Whakarewarewa and Hell's Gate.
- Bay of Islands
For sheer beauty, the Bay of Islands wins the day for North Island coastal scenery. In the far north of the island, it is a giant bay peppered with 150 islands which, miraculously, have escaped development. Beware, though, tourists come to the mainland in their masses - although this means there are activities and amusements galore.
- Rainbow's End
Rainbow's End prides itself on being "New Zealand's largest and friendliest Theme Park". This huge family attraction was built in 1982 and features all the thrilling rides that you would expect.
- Waiheke Island
Waiheke island is just half an hour's boat trip from Auckland and ideal for watersports, walks and the hippy lifestyle. Aucklanders escape the city every weekend to hang out in their "batches" - weekend homes - and we suggest you join them.
- Mount Ruapehu & Tongariro National Park
Mount Ruapehu is familiar to more people than know it - it was used as Mount Doom in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy. The ultimate landmark of Middle Earth is in reality a still-active - and just as awe-inspiring - volcano. It smokes and bubbles in the centre of Tongariro National Park, an area of incredible natural beauty, a holy space for the Maoris and home to "the best one-day walk in the world".
