Great Barrier island has unspoiled beaches, native bushland and is home to several unique plant and bird species. The native bush leads to secluded natural hot springs and historic Kauri dams.

| Rangitoto Island |
 |
Rangitoto, the largest and youngest of Auckland’s volcanoes, emerged from the sea around 600 years ago in a series of fiery volcanic explosions. Further eruptions sent red-hot lava flows down the sides of the volcano forming the black basaltic rock that now makes up much of the island. Scientists do not expect the island to erupt again.
