Hawke’s Bay Wine Country is a holiday destination where the sun seems to forever shine.  Famed for being one of the three major wine making regions in New Zealand, Hawke’s Bay is home to internationally acclaimed wines and is the premier New Zealand destination for food, wine and lifestyle.

Supported by a Mediterranean climate and a varied landscape, from dramatic sea cliffs to fertile plains and crystal clear rivers that meander down to the Pacific Ocean, the region has a diverse range of things to see and do and hosts a number of iconic events throughout the year.

 

For families enjoying the sun, there are golden sand beaches, water theme parks, public swimming pools and crystal clear rivers.  Visit the National Aquarium of New Zealand or see the largest mainland gannet colony in the world.

For the thrill-seeker there’s plenty to fuel your adrenaline, including jet-boating, hot air ballooning, surfing, caving, paragliding, sailing and windsurfing.  Day walks, hunting, fishing and golf are popular pastimes too.
