Whangarei Falls

In New Zealand we have 2 official languages: Maori and English. The Falls you see here has a Maori name and if you want to say it right you should pronounce the 'Wh' at the begining of the name as a 'F'. Therefore we have 'Fangarei'.
About the falls now....
It's located about 2 hours driving from Auckland on your way up North. Once you are in Whangarei downtown it will take only 10 minutes to get there.

Bay of Islands

No, that's not my boat! Bay of Islands has 144 islands and this is one of them.
