Bay of Islands, Cape Reinga and sandboarding on 90 mile beach :-)

I made my way to the north of the north island, which was well worth the visit. I ended up on a dolphin and island cruise, which was fabulous and then a visit to what i have to say is one of the most beautiful places iv been, Cape Reinga. Sandboarding was hilarious and obviously i got sand everywhere, but it was well worth it!

I also had the opportunity to visit the Waitangi treaty grounds. This was a signifucant part of New Zealands history and din 1840 the treaty was signed between the Maori and the Europeans to help disputes over land rights. The treaty grounds are mainly an area where you can go and learn about the history of New Zealand and enjoy the incredible carvings which represent different tribal groups of the country.
