奥克兰的豪拉基湾排名1.2 million hectare marine playground for 奥克兰ers and visitors alike.  50多个岛屿的壮观美景, 看似无穷无尽的海湾, 常被遗弃的田园诗般的海滩, scarlet-splashed pohutakawa 森林 and the natural backdrop in general of sweeping sand, 清澈的大海和湛蓝的天空非常吸引人.

水上活动:

有丰富的海洋野生动物, 稀有的海鸟和种类繁多的鱼类, 在2000年, this tapestry of marine ecosystems became the country's first national park of the sea.  今天, the Hauraki海湾 Marine Park has five separate marine reserves that fall under its protective umbrella.

为游客, there are opportunites to venture into the park and observe whales and dolphins up close.  奥克兰 Whale and Dolphin Safari offer eco-safari trips on their purpose-built research vessel the 'Dolphin Explorer'.
它也被认为 水上活动 heaven by many - not hard to understand once you factor in the sheltered nature of the inner gulf, numerous harbours and the semi-shallow coastal environment.  在这里, 你可以浮潜, 潜水, kayak, 桨板, 冲浪, 帆, 啜饮当地葡萄酒, 午餐吃鱼, 参观军事遗迹或探索休眠火山. 逃避和宁静都是这里的关键词.
