east coast

East Coast reaches out to the Pacific Ocean, and is the first mainland place in the world to see the sun each day.

There's a wonderfully fresh quality to the scenery of this area. Bush fringed misty mountain lakes, beaches hardly changed for hundreds of years, farmland and vineyards that breathe the spirit of nature.

The further you go, the more nature's bounty tempts—camping, diving, fishing, hunting, swimming and surfing opportunities.

There are many interesting and beautiful walks within the region, but one of the most stunning areas for hiking and trekking is in the Te Urewera National Park, the third largest national park and the largest untouched native forest in New Zealand. Hhorse trekking is another way to experience the magic of East Coast.

IGisborne is a city you can indulge in gourmet dining and wine tasting.Tthe Southern Hemisphere's first commercially grown black truffles, the finest cheeses and Chardonnay to die for are found here..

Gisborne's white sand surf beaches attract surfers from all over the world—Captain Cook was the first, his ship Endeavour surfed into Kaiti Beach in 1769.
