The forever-summer climate makes Waiheke Island a gem. You'll lose 10 years the moment you step ashore. Considered by many to be the most magical part of the Auckland experience and easily accessed by ferry, Waiheke's beautiful beaches and native forest reserves blend seamlessly with the cafes, vineyards and art studios. Waiheke is home to a burgeoning wine industry, unique and exclusive accommodation and many prominent New Zealand artists have made it their home. This island is perfect for a day's shopping and wine tasting, or several days of indulgent relaxation. Waiheke serves tourists well with a range of activities, from horse riding and farm tours to sea kayaking and mountain biking.
