My Score:

Comment: Waiheke Island is indeed an idyllic spot with many interesting people and communities etc. But the place really is Golden Bay and the Nelson regions in the top of the south Island. not only is natural beauty abundant, but we have the most golden sands in NZ, rivers, lakes and Abel Tasman National Park are just a few of our treasures. There are so many artists and happy communities. The good vibe reigns and people of all types flock to nelson. I think this area should be added to this list, if not head it! GO GOLDEN BAY!

Comment: I just moved here, and I cannot say enough good things about it.. Its glorious, and verdant and so many birds! I have found my own slice of heaven, to be sure.
