We’ve got no shortage on water in New Zealand! Positioned in between the Pacific Ocean and the Tasman Sea, the slice of land that makes up NZ also abounds with rivers and lakes, and that’s without mentioning the rainfall.
A whole raft of water activities have been developed over the years (excuse the pun!): canoeing and kayaking, jet boating, scenic cruises, white and black water rafting, swimming with the dolphins and sailing to name just a few. Kiwis have a close and harmonious relationship with the water and taking part in one of these activities will allow you to share their experience and come away with some great memories.
Once again the operators in the tourism industry are strictly regulated so you can be assured of safely undertaking the activity of your choice.
Samoa is our favourite when it comes to the Pacific Islands. It is brimming with beautiful beaches and other unique places just waiting to be explored. If you are looking for the postcard perfect destination that is a little more off the beaten track, then a Samoa Vacation is for you!

If you've been wanting to kayak in North Island, think about the Coromandel, and in particular about Cathedral Cove - it is a fantastic spot and one of the few places where children can kayak too.

We have cruised the Milford Sound several times and along with the Milford Road we really enjoyed the experience but we were still left wanting to explore Doubtful Sound which is not as well-known as Milford and is a harder fiord to access.

In September I decided to try out the adventure of sailing on one of the former America's Cup yachts in Auckland. NZ was the first country to be able to wrestle the cup out of the Americans hands and it is a feat that is very proudly regarded here.

Akaroa is one of our favourite destinations in New Zealand, and sure we have a few Frenchies in the office but in all objectivity, this village is truly a little-known gem.
