Hawke's Bay
An Art Deco city on a sunny bay, surrounded by vineyards and a long pebbled coastline.
Rebuilt in Art Deco style after the 1931 earthquake, Napier is one of the sunniest spots in the country and the hub of the Hawke's Bay wine region. Cycle the vineyard trails, wander the 1930s streets and follow the coast around to the Cape Kidnappers gannet colony.
Camp near the waterfront and settle into a warm, easygoing pace. It's a comfortable stop on the eastern route through the North Island.
