Auckland, with a population of about 1.5 million people, is by far the largest city of New Zealand. Approximately one in three New Zealanders, lives on the narrow land bridge flanked by two magnificent harbors – the Waitemata to the east and the Manukau to the west – both dotted with many small islands.
Auckland´s location by the sea, a warm humid climate, the city´s cosmopolitan flair, the background rhythm of Polynesian culture and a modern city environment, have inspired a lifestyle that is regularly ranked in the world´s top ten.
Within the city zone, locals as well as visitors, can shop around downtown, dine at one of the fine waterfront restaurants, visit the Auckland Museum, enjoy views from the Sky Tower, sail to an island, trek through the rain forest, picnic on a volcano, sample wines at a vineyard, or wander a wild, black sand, surf beach, on Auckland´s rugged west coast. |
