Don't ignore Auckland - there's a lot going on and it's a hell of a lot of fun. Everything from the cafe's of Ponsonby, the shopping on Vulcan Lane and High Street and the west coast beaches (Piha, Bethels, Muruwai).

I used to live in New Zealand, I miss it.
Places to go:
- Mt Maunganui - great beach, love this place, nr Tauranga (also nice)
( http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=… )Pauanui - lovely beach, I remember the water being crystal clear at the end of the Coramandel
( http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=… )
Rotorua - smells like crap, but all the geothermal activity is pretty neat to see. I think it's called 'Hell's Gate' a big park walking around all the spots - good afternoon out.

There's a few. Rotorua and Tauranga are in the middle of north island near Taupo - the other one is up north by Auckland.
Take pics!

btw: You can get hirecars super cheap there if you look around. Hertz etc $1200+ for 3 weeks - my dad found somewhere that will do 3 weeks for $367! He's off there himself in a month...
