Did you know that New Zealand also has deserts?

#Overseas travel #New Zealand #North Island #Desert #Desert trekking There is a large desert called Giant sand dunes in the north of New Zealand! It takes almost 6 hours by car from downtown Auckland, but even if you drive for a long time, you will not regret it because the sand dunes and scenery will unfold in front of you😍 When I think of deserts, I usually think that I have to walk a long way after getting out of the car, but here, you can see the sand dunes right away after getting off at the parking lot and crossing a small stream! There were many people who went sandboarding. You can bring your own, but there are also companies that rent them on site, so you can experience riding a board down the desert! A trip to New Zealand where glaciers, deserts, seas, and mountains come together It's one of the best choices👐👐

Cape Reinga

Cape Regina is at the northern end of the North Island of New Zealand. An ancient pohutukawa tree and lonely lighthouse mark this special place, it holds great significance in Maori Culture. This is the place where spirits come to descend into the underworld. A 4 kilometers 8 minutes drive, we reach Te Paki Stream to have the sand boarding fun, then we proceed to the nintey-Mile Beach drive. I took the day tour from Paihia that is 200 kilometers away to Cape Regina. Pahia have more accommodation and restaurants.
