Introducing North of Auckland

The Auckland region sprawls 90km north of the CBD to just past the point where SH16 and SH1 converge at Wellsford. Beaches, regional parks, quaint villages, kayaking and snorkelling are the main drawcards. The multilane Northern Motorway currently takes you as far as Orewa on the Hibiscus Coast. During the lifetime of this book an extension to Puhoi should be completed, hopefully easing the Christmas period gridlock. Until then, SH16 through Kumeu and Helensville is a sensible alternative during peak season; ask a local.
