New Zealand is divided into two main islands- the North Island (Te Ika-a-Māui) and the South Island (Te Waipounamu)–and it features more than 700 smaller islands. Found on the North Island, Wellington is its capital city while Auckland is the most populous city. Due to its rich geography, the country is blessed with beautiful landscapes and beaches that can be found on different islands and in many towns. One of the towns getting traction in the northern Auckland region is Warkworth. A picturesque riverside town, Warkworth is best known for the Mahurangi River where travelers can relax. Travelers also take the ferry to Kawau Island to take a dip in the island’s crystal-clear waters. As you plan your trip, look for and book a unique accommodation that will help you stay comfortable during your vacation in town. Read on to discover some of the best Airbnb vacation rentals in Warkworth, New Zealand.
