Even in the middle of the central city in Auckland, you're never far from the natural environment. Native bush, beaches and lakes surround the city. There's a beach for everyone. From the wild black-sand surf beaches on the west coast to the cafe-lined beaches near the city center. Auckland is also home to 26 regional parks.
Auckland Airport is New Zealand's largest entry point for travellers arriving in New Zealand. Auckland also has several large commercial and cargo harbours. With so much coming into and out of Auckland, there's a role for all of us to help protect it from pests and diseases.
