Waiheke Island is the most populated and the second-largest island in the Hauraki Gulf of New Zealand. The original Maori name for the island was Te Motu-arai-roa (the long sheltering island), but at the time the first European visitors arrived, it was known as Motu-Wai-Heke (island of tickling waters). Presently, Waiheke Island is known as the Island of Wine and is home to a dedicated group of award-winning winegrowers who have successfully matched the unique maritime climate and ancient soil structures to the selection of classical grape varieties to produce distinctive varieties of red and white wines. Some top sights in Waiheke Island include; Mudbrick Vineyard and Restaurant, Rotoroa Island, Cable Bay Vineyards, Man O’ War Vineyards, Tantalus Estate, Wild on Waiheke and several others.
