From beautiful cities with fantastic shopping and dining to secluded sandy beaches, rainforest, volcanoes and a geo-thermal wonderland; New Zealand's North Island has it all.
The North Island of New Zealand (115,000sq km) is perhaps best known for the unique volcanic plateau at its centre. This thermal belt contains active volcanoes - Ruapehu, Ngauruhoe and Tongariro - and magnificent examples of geysers, boiling mud pools, hot springs and steam vents.
The North Island in New Zealand is the first landing place of the native Maoris. The Central North Island to the far North of this country still holds today almost all of the Maori population. Rotorua is the center of Maori culture.
In Waitomo District, the Waitomo Caves, with their caverns, underground rivers and glittering glow-worms, are one of the island's most popular attractions, while up north the historic Bay of Islands is famous for its scenic islands and secluded coves.
Several important cities are in the North Island, notably New Zealand's largest city, Auckland with 1,3 Million people. The cosmopolitan city is known for its vibrant Pacific culture and stunning harbours. Wellington, the capital, located at the southern extremity of the island.
Approximately 76% of New Zealand's population lives in the al; year round warmer North Island
The North Island has four national parks - Te Urewera, Egmont, Whanganui and Tongariro - offering a World Heritage Site, thermal fields, hot springs, ski areas, native forest, rivers and historic Maori sites.
