Nelson and New Zealand's Abel Tasman
The Nelson and Tasman regions boast the longest sunshine hours in New Zealand, which may explain the wonderful Nelson wines. With beautiful coastlines, safe beaches, clear, clean rivers and three national parks in the area (Abel Tasman, Kahurangi and Nelson Lakes) you won't be short for things to do.
Then there's the cafés, restaurants, museums, crafts, artists and galleries...
