Went to the northern most part of the country this past weekend with a few friends from work. The first day we drove up to Whangarei. It's about a 5 hr drive. I posted a few pics of the falls just outside of town. This is supposedly the most photographed waterfall in NZ. The next morning we took the short drive east to Tutukaka. Our boat left from here to some volcanic islands off the coast, the Poor Knights Islands. We did 2 dives there. Saw lots of stingrays, fish, eels and one of the drivers saw a hammerhead. Our second dive was through an underwater cave where the fish were concentrated in huge schools. It is generally regarded as one of the 10 best dive sites in the world. Really wish I had an underwater camera. As we pulled into the harbor in Tutukaka, a group of 10-15 Bottlenose dolphins played around the boat.
