Things to do - general

Located in the stunning Hauraki Gulf is Waiheke Island, a family-friendly oasis with plenty to offer. Waiheke was first named Te Motu-arai-roa, (the long sheltering island) after its welcoming nature, and home to many species of wildlife including the illusive Kaka. With 40 kilometres of enticing beaches, an award-winning zipline and multiple magnificent DOC managed walking tracks, the island is full of activities for those with a more adventurous side. Looking for something a little more relaxed? The island also has over a dozen vineyards and wineries with world-class kitchens including New Zealand’s top wineries; Cable Bay, Stonyridge, Mudbrick and Tantalus Estate just to name a few. Sightseeing highlights include Rangihoua Estate the multi-award-winning producer of Extra Virgin Olive Oils, Waiheke Community Art Gallery housing some of New Zealand’s best artists and Ecozip flying fox zip-line and guided hike experience.

Waiheke Island and its exuberant treasures await you. It’s sure to be a trip you will never forget.

Sports & nature

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean.

A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia. It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth. Even the all-powerful Pointing has no control about the blind texts it is an almost unorthographic life One day however a small line of blind text by the name of Lorem Ipsum decided to leave for the far World of Grammar.

The Big Oxmox advised her not to do so, because there were thousands of bad Commas, wild Question Marks and devious Semikoli, but the Little Blind Text didn't listen. She packed her seven versalia, put her initial into the belt and made herself on the way. When she reached the first hills of the Italic Mountains, she had a last view back on the skyline of her hometown Bookmarksgrove, the headline of Alphabet Village and the subline of her own road, the Line Lane.
