Take a small ship cruise to the beautiful Auckland Islands, part of New Zealand, located South of the main islands. These small, uninhabited islands have a combined area of 626 kilometers squared and commenced as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1998. Consider cruising the Tasman Sea on a small ship cruise. You'll get plenty of chances to observe rare, endemic wildlife in its natural habitat, get a chance to visit an abandoned WWII coast watcher's station, or check out a shipwreck dating back to 1864. Auckland tours highlight the Fish Market, Mt. Eden, Waiheke wineries, and penguins at Kelly Tarlton’s for a clear mix of Auckland food, nature, and waterfront sights.
