Auckland is a vibrant urban center surrounded by water, often called the “City of Sails.” Its mix of culture, nature, and food makes it one of Oceania’s most appealing destinations.

Our Impression
Auckland doesn’t announce itself so much as reveal itself, through harbors, through volcanic hills, through Māori and global traditions set to a calm, everyday pace. Waterfront life, cultural diversity, and a steady metropolitan pulse round it out into something unmistakably Auckland.

Did You Know…
Auckland has more boats per capita than almost any city in the world – its sailing culture is central to its identity and everyday life.
