Waipo Cove Northland NZ, About two hours' drive north of Auckland is Bream Bay. The 13-mile sweep of white sand begins at Marsden Point in the north and ends at Langs Beach in the south, and contains the small towns of One Tree Point, Ruakaka, Waipu, and Waipu Cove. The beaches are the most obvious reason to visit Bream Bay, as they're among the best in the country. Original public domain image from Flickr
