Feature Island


Regional Information

New Zealand's two islands host some of the rarest beauty in the world. This country's landscape of glaciers, rivers, clear lakes and alpine mountains are all suited to the active Kiwi lifestyle. New Zealand's south island is mountainous while its north island is home to its famous beaches, and of course, the majority of the region's private islands. You can swim with dolphins, whale-watch or fish for fattened trout, all from your own island. New Zealand's northern islands are located near Auckland, dubbed “The City of Sails”. This metropolis has more boats per capita than any other city in the world. Bareboat and skippered charters are available throughout New Zealand; another great way to spend your private island holiday.
