Map of New Zealand  

Tourism  
Great natural beauty, friendly people, Maori culture, mountains with glaciers and rain forests, beaches, fjords, fishing, sailing, surfing, skiing, golf, hiking, thermal baths, wildlife and sheep are New Zealand's foremost attractions.

You can bungee-jump off cliffs or bridges; rocket through narrow caverns on jet boats; or strap yourself inside a giant plastic ball and roll down a hillside.

If you prefer more leisurely activities, you can still enjoy New Zealand's natural wonders by strolling along its pristine beaches, sailing on its picturesque bays or fishing in its crystal-clear rivers and lakes.
