We are continuing our New Zealand road trip around the Northland region. In this travel vlog, we are exploring the Far North and driving all the way up to the northernmost point of New Zealand's North Island - Cape Reinga. You can also other beautiful destinations in this travel video including Te Paki Sand Dunes and Ninety Mile Beach. Many kiwis and tourists love spending their holidays exploring Northland because its nature is absolutely spectacular.
If you're doing a road trip and drive around Northland, we recommend getting to Cape Reinga as early as possible to beat the traffic and crowds. Tourist buses arrive closer to lunchtime and it's way harder to enjoy Cape Reinga Lighthouse and surrounding tracks when it's full of people. Also, bring your food with you as there is no place to buy lunch or coffee. It's not only true for Cape Reinga but for the whole Far North District, food and fuel are very limited here, so plan strategically.
On our way back from Cape Reinga, we decided to visit another amazing tourist attraction - Te Paki Giant Sand Dunes. This is not only a beautiful destination for taking pictures and admiring views. This is a very unique spot to try sand boarding, right from giant dunes. There is a lot of people here even outside of the peak season, but there is enough space for everyone. You can bring your own sand board (you can buy it in Kmart or Warehouse in any big city) or rent it right at the car park. You can also enjoy your walk around Te Paki Sand Dunes - it's totally free.
Another amazing and truly unique place to visit in Northland is Ninety Mile Beach. This is not only a spectacular beach with stunning views (definitely one of the miracles of New Zealand nature), it's also a highway. Yes, that's correct, if you have a suitable vehicle, you can officially drive on 90 Mile Beach. Obviously, you would want to have a 4x4 car, SUV or UTE which is also high enough to cope with sand. We were using BMW X3 xDrive and it was good as. Also, check your insurance policy (especially if you're renting a car) as many companies don't cover any damage and don't provide any assistance on the Ninety Mile Beach.
