The city of 1,500,000 people is located in the North of the North Island of New Zealand, nestled between the Tasman Sea and the South Pacific Ocean. The city and its surroundings are shaped by the green hills of 50 volcanoes, rugged, surf beaches in the West and the Hauraki Gulf with a myriad of islands.
