Hawkes Bay, New Zealand
Wed, May 21st 2008, 00:00
Hawkes Bay is a region of New Zealand which overlooks the Pacific Ocean on the east coast of New Zealand’s north island.
Hawkes Bay bay extends 100 kilometres from the Mahia Peninsula in the north to the famous gannet colony at Cape Kidnappers in the south. Hawkes Bay is one of the first regions to see colonial settlement in New Zealand. Captain Cook first set foot in Hawkes Bay in 1769 to be followed soon after by whalers and missionaries. Farming began in the mid 1800s.
Hawkes Bay is one of New Zealand’s oldest wine growing regions. The area has one of the highest number of sunshine hours in New Zealand and this dry sunny climate is ideal for grape growing. The climate also makes the Hawkes Bay area one of New Zealand’s foremost tourist centres
