Largest city in New Zealand, Auckland is the hub of commerce and industry. There are more people in Auckland than in the rest of the country, and Auckland is the largest metroplitian home of Pacific Islanders - there is an enormous cultural diversity in the 40-odd miles of homes and parks that is Auckland. To escape the city, the Waitemata Harbour and the Hauraki Gulf beckons. Auckland is known as the "City of Sails" with more boats per capita than any other city in the Southern Hemisphere. The West Coast beaches at Piha - where Hercules, Beastmaster and Xena are filmed - are black sand, while the East coast sand is white. Each is swept by different oceans, the Tasman Sea to the west, and the Pacific to the east.
