Known as the birthplace of the nation, Northland is the picturesque and unspoiled northern-most stretch of New Zealand. The population of Northland is 148,500, is 3.7% of the total population, and is the 8th largest region in New Zealand. The climate is sub-tropical with temperatures ranging from 9-30 Celsius. Northland is the warmest area in New Zealand during the winter and provides a welcoming escape for Kiwis living in the more southern reaches of the country, and overseas visitors wanting a relaxing holiday. Industries in the Northland Region include marine engineering, forestry and wood processing, horticulture, aquaculture, the creative arts, and pastoral farming.

Regional highlights include the Twin Coast Discovery Highway, the Bay of Islands, the town of Russell, which was New Zealand’s first capital city, the Waitangi Treaty Grounds, Kaitaia, the Aupori Penninsula tour, 90 mile beach and Cape Reinga.
