Waiheke Island https://www.waiheke.co.nz/ is island in the Hauraki Gulf (New Zealand). Its ferry terminal is 21.5 km (13.4 mi) from Auckland. There are many scenic beaches, including Onetangi Beach. In Onetangi (a Māori name meaning “weeping sands”), you can find sandcastle-building contests annually. You too have a few hours to build your creations in soft sand, with free barbecue and public facilities. With astonished views of the Hauraki Gulf, Te Whau Vineyard & Restaurant http://www.winesofnz.com/winery/te-whau-vineyard/ has the most stunning views on Waiheke Island. The small vineyard express the best of Waiheke. Here, as a child, a girl named Tusitala started to love poetry.
