Northland Peninsula

Northland Peninsula is a stunning region located in the northernmost part of New Zealand's North Island. Known for its pristine beaches, lush forests, and rich Maori culture, Northland is a photographer's paradise. The region offers a diverse range of photography locations, from the iconic Cape Reinga lighthouse to the majestic Waipoua Forest, home to some of the largest kauri trees in the world. Other popular photography spots include the Bay of Islands, with its crystal-clear waters and picturesque islands, and the historic town of Russell, which boasts charming colonial architecture and stunning views of the Bay.
