Northland is an historic area with both the Maori and Europeans
choosing this area to settle first. In Waitangi on February the 6th
1840 a treaty was signed between Maori chiefs and the British
Crown.This is the founding document of New Zealand and is celebrated
with an annual holiday. Northland has a wonderful climate and is refered to as
the'Winterless North'. In the Summer months the area is host to
legions of holiday makers. Northland has some beautiful beaches and is
famous for its Big Game Fishing.
Whangarei is Northlands only city with the rest of Northland being
sparsely populated especially during the winter months.
