Rangitoto Island Wharf Base, Rangitoto Island, Auckland 1010, New Zealand 

Rangitoto is Auckland’s most iconic island, with its distinctive symmetrical cone and superb location just off the coast. Only a short scenic ferry ride across the harbour from downtown Auckland, the island is a favourite destination for hikers and day-trippers. Emerging unexpectedly from the sea some 600 years ago, it is the youngest and largest volcano in the Auckland volcanic field.

The views from the top are spectacular – you’ll be able to see everything from the emerald islands of the Hauraki Gulf to the rugged horizons of the Waitakere Ranges in the west and Hunua Ranges in the east.
