Whakanaka to Napier.
What is the best way to go from Whakanaka (White Island) to Napier? Is it the coastal route via Gisborn or the inland route via Rotorua and Taupo. I was thinking of going to Rotorua then Whakanaka then Napier then Taupo. -- JohnM |

I was thinking of going to Rotorua then Whakanaka then Napier then Taupo. Depends on your definition of "best". If you look at the map you'll see an inland route from Opotiki to Gisborne through Matawai. That may well be the quickest, and it's not too bad in terms of scenery either. Then there's the tourist trail through Rotorua and Taupo. But for my money the best is the coastal route via East Cape where you'll see spectacular views from a highway that often clings to the top of a huge cliff and some genuine Maori communities. This is where "Whale Rider" was filmed, and that is how the people live, with every school having an entrance carved in the old fashion. Peter |

Thanks Peter It's hard to wrong in New Zealand, no matter what you do. Everywhere is good. It's just that the best is superb. Which is probably why I've been such a fan for twenty years. Peter |
