New Zealand – Beaches

In New Zealand you will find a large number of mostly fine white sandy beaches. The beaches outside the big cities are usually little or not at all visited. Kilometre-long bays are not uncommon.

Turquoise blue water with white sandy beaches are reminiscent of the South Seas. Many regions on the coasts with their beaches are difficult to reach because they have no road connection. Subtropical vegetation has been able to form in these remote areas.

The picture is different in the inhabited areas, however. There is usually a lot of activity on the beaches and in the area of the coasts. Most New Zealanders are water sports enthusiasts. Almost every family has its own boat. In the north of New Zealand on the Coromandel Peninsula, however, you can still find almost untouched beaches where you can walk for miles without meeting a person.
