Akaroa is a small town on Banks Peninsula in the Canterbury region of the South Island of New Zealand, situated within a harbour of the same name. The name Akaroa is Kāi Tahu Māori for "Long Harbour", which would be spelled "Whangaroa" in standard Māori.
It is set on sheltered harbour and is overlooked and surrounded by the remnants of a miocene volcano. Akaroa is a popular resort town and in summer the temporary population can reach 15,000 which places stress on the summer water supply, which is entirely dependent upon rainfall on the hills.
Honeymoon to Hawaii
My fiancée and I used Michael as our travel agent when we recently booked our honeymoon to Hawaii. He was extremely knowledgeable on the area and strived to ensure we would receive the best value on our flights and accommodations. He was available and willing to chat with us morning, noon, and night and put all of our concerns at ease about making our honeymoon a truly unforgettable experience. I highly recommend Michael.
