New Zealand Beaches
New Zealand has an very long coastline compared to the size of the country (over 15,000 km) which makes it approximately the same size as the mainland USA's coastline.
Even though New Zealand is only about the same size as Colorado, the large coastline is possible because it is extremely iregular and indented.
New Zealand's coastline is packed with deep coves, bays, intricate harbours, long sounds, and steep fiords. Its territorial waters stretch from the sub-tropical through to the sub-antarctic.
New Zealand's coastline is amazing and it reaches a scenic climax in both the Fiordland and Abel Tasman National Parks in the South Island, and the Bay of Islands Maritime Reserve in the North Island.
Mitre Peak in Fiordland is one exceptional feature of New Zealand's coastline, it rises a staggering height of nearly one mile from the ocean.
Abel Tasman National Park contains New Zealand's best sandy beaches and has one of the highest sunlight hours in New Zealand.
