Eternal Summer in the Bay of Islands


While the rest of the country has to contend with gale-force winds and heavy flooding, up here in the Bay of Islands it seems like an eternal summer. The sun has been shining consistently for the last 6 weeks with beautiful breezes to match. Perfect sailing conditions every day, and everyone has been enjoying the weather, scenery, and of course the amazing wildlife, particularly the bottlenose dolphins.
So, with the risk of being a bit repetitive, we’re posting our latest dolphin photos to share with you.
