   1 hAdmission included

4. This beautiful place is one of the most important natural water sources in New Zealand. The water you see here is incredibly clear and blue. That’s because it has been filtered naturally through volcanic rock and underground aquifers for over 50 to 100 years before reaching the surface. Because of this long natural filtration process, the water is some of the purest in the world. In fact, the Blue Spring supplies around 70% of the bottled water produced in New Zealand. Even though the water looks clean enough to drink, swimming and touching the water are not allowed.

About Auckland

Auckland, New Zealand's largest city, spreads across an isthmus between two harbours, dotted with volcanic cones, beaches and island-studded bays.

The Sky Tower rises above the central city and the waterfront, where the Viaduct Harbour and Wynyard Quarter are lined with restaurants and yachts, fitting Auckland's nickname, the City of Sails. Mount Eden and One Tree Hill, two of the many volcanic cones scattered across the city, give panoramic views.
