EVEN IN THE WINTER,

A VISIT TO DEVONPORT

ISN’T COMPLETE WITHOUT

A DELICIOUS ICE-CREAM

IN A CONE!

WHY ARE THE BEST CHILDHOOD MEMORIES OF THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE? Playing with the kids next door, going on mad bike rides with your �atmates, winter walks with someone special. Devonport is just the kind of place where those memories are made. Taking a short ferry trip to Devonport is the easiest of days out. No crowded theme parks with long queues, no need to su�er angst looking for a parking space and no chain stores.

Devonport village has an eclectic retro feel about it with boutique stores, galleries, parks, cafes and museums. Exploring around the village you’ll see superbly restored Victorian homes, hotels and restaurants.

Children experience a freedom in Devonport that busy city or suburban precincts just can’t o�er. Explore historic North Head, once home to a heavily armed fort built to defend

Devonport. So much...so near.

Devonport Craft Market

Bay this place is no musty museum. We’re talking a state-of-the art space with unique collections of objects that tell the stories of New Zealand’s Navy. It’s free for entry and tours but donations are gratefully accepted.

FREE DEVONPORT RETURN TICKET with every Fullers Harbour Cruise ticket.

Auckland; �rst in the1880s against a suspected Russian invasion and then again in 1941 during WW11. Forti�ed tunnels, mounted artillery, under-ground storerooms, barracks and guardrooms were all installed.

And parents, for the record, the mine- �eld has been cleared, you can only go so far into the tunnels and the disap- pearing gun at South Battery is still in place but it won’t even �re blanks! So let the kids run wild and play hard.

Somewhere else with a strong sense of history is the Naval Museum, a short 1.5km stroll from the ferry. Housed in a refurbished 19th Century submarine mining station and situated at Torpedo

So much...so near.

Tucked away behind the supermarket and next to Depot Artspace in Clarence Street is the craft market with stalls by clever, creative artists and gift makers. Things for your home, kids' clothes, toys, garden art, beautiful soaps,fashion, jewellery, vintage style goods, sweethandmade treats and so much more.Winter: 1st Sunday of the month, 10am-2pm. www.devonportcraftmarket.blogspot.com

FULLERS HARBOUR CRUISE SKIPPER CEILHE HALPIN HAS ONE THING TO SAY TO PEOPLE PLANNING THEIR BIG OVERSEAS EXPERIENCE:

Cruising the harbo Auckland experience...

“Check out Auckland’s beautiful harbour on your own doorstep before you leave.” He goes on to say he is no longer surprised by the number of visitors telling him we have such a pristine harbour, especially when so many come from countries where polluted waterways are a very real problem.

An experienced skipper here and overseas, Ceilhe likes the variety of boats he sees on

the water. ”You’ll see yachts over 100 years old with original rigging gracefully gliding along and then a state-of-the art America’s Cup multi-hull yacht racing by at an exhil- arating speed. Auckland really is the City of Sails.”

Fullers’ skippers often report chance sight- ings of marine wildlife including fur seals, dolphins, little blue penguins and even pods of orca whales swimming nearby or playing in the wake of the vessel.

FULLERS 1.5 HOUR HARBOUR CRUISE DEPARTS DAILY AT 10.30AM AND 1.30PM.FREE Devonport return ticket included. ADULT $38, CHILD $19, SENIOR $35, FAMILY $95 Page 6

Cruising the harbo Auckland experience...

ur is a ‘must-do’

A vivid childhood memory is: My �rst ride on a high speed ferry when I was 10. Myself and a mate stood on deck loving it while

the rest of the class were down below throwing up! Best advice received: ‘The best part of life is always the people

you share it with’ and the old saying ‘It’s who you know...’The questions visitors ask most often: Which end is the front?

Where are the bathrooms? How on earth do you pronounce your name? Do these guys pay you enough? Why is the NZ �ag

red on our boat, and white or blue on some others?* What I like to do on my days o�: Family time with our 20 month old son and Kite Sur�ng. Both can be fun and challenging!

My secret skill is: I make a mean bolognaise... and chocolate sauce!

With two fully commentated Fullers Harbour Cruises daily, (with morning or afternoon tea), the timing is perfect for tourists. The morning departure will return you to Downtown in time for lunch and the afternoon tour is ideal for those wishing to relax after a morning of sightseeing or shopping around the city.

With either cruise you’ll receive a free open return ticket to Devonport to use at your leisure.

And for those locals who have never taken a look at our city, its coast and islands of the gulf from the water, Ceilhe simply says “just do it!”.

HIGHLIGHTS: Bean Rock Light- house, Rangitoto Island stop- over, North Head, Devonport Naval Base, Harbour Bridge, Westhaven Marina, Viaduct Basin and more.

WE PUT SKIPPER CEILHE ON THE SPOT...

FULLERS 1.5 HOUR HARBOUR CRUISE DEPARTS DAILY AT 10.30AM AND 1.30PM.FREE Devonport return ticket included. ADULT $38, CHILD $19, SENIOR $35, FAMILY $95

*The �ag is the NZ Red Ensign and it’s the �ag used by New Zealand maritime. It is �own on non-government ships. A white ensign is used by the New Zealand Navy.

MOTUTAPU EDUCATION CAMP Located in its own private valley the camp sits on the foreshore of a beautiful bay with 4ha of facilities and access to the DOC managed scenic reserve on both Rangitoto and Motutapu. For accommodation and activity options see website.

IN 2011 MOTUTAPU AND RANGITOTO ISLANDS WERE DECLARED PEST-FREE wildlife sanctuaries after a twenty-year pest eradication programme. The massive $3million project is the most complex island pest eradication ever attempted anywhere in the world according to the Department of Conservation.

It’s being carried out to rid Rangitoto and Motutapu of animal pests including mice, feral cats, hedgehogs and rabbits that feed on birds and insects. Possums and wallabies were successfully wiped out in a campaign in the 1990s. Native birdlife, vital plant life and forest will �ourish as a result.

Already breeding pairs of Takahe have been relocated to the islands and a further 30 species of threatened native wildlife are expected to be released onto the islands in the future. These include kiwi, hihi or stitchbird, tuatara and several species of native reptile. Covering a combined landbase of 3800 hectares, Rangitoto and Motutapu Islands are well on the way to becoming a valuable world-class conservation sanctuary.

Plans include introducing Tuatara to the Island.

The inquisitive, �ightless Takahe is settling in.

ECO-ISLANDS: MOTUTAPU & RANGITOTO

RANGITOTO BACH TOURSStep back in time to experience a taste of early NZ holiday homes (baches) on Rangitoto Island dating back to the 1920s. Tour includes ferry, tour and cream tea scone. For upcoming tour dates visit the website.

Bottled water not only hits the pockets of Aucklanders but many of the plastic water bottles also �nd their way into our streams, land�lls and our pristine Gulf.

The Hauraki Gulf Conservation Trust has delivered a solution with new water bubbler fountains around Auckland.

Ideal on islands without reticulated water, the fountains have been placed in Down-town Auckland, Devonport Wharf and at Matiatia Wharf on Waiheke Island.

The Hauraki Gulf Conservation Trust has a vision and objectives for preserving the natural environment in and around the Hauraki Gulf.

AS THE DAYS GET SHORTER AND THE NIGHTS GET COLDER, MOST OF US FEEL A LITTLE ‘BLAH’...

Ask any health professional how to ‘shake them winter blues’ and they’ll recommend a to-do list. Follow this prescription for Waiheke magic and fresh sea air and it won’t fail to lift your spirits!

1. EXERCISE: The island is19kms in length of coastal beauty trimmed by golden sandy shorelines, fragrant bush walks as well as conservation trails o�ering walkers many opportunities to explore. Getting out and about on foot is one of the best ways to get a real feel for the island and will allow you to discover much of what makes Waiheke so special.

2. SOCIALISE: Bring a friend...or three. Make a date with friends or family lucky enough to live on Waiheke Island. Enjoying the expedition with people special to you can only enhance the memories.

3. EAT A HEALTHY DIET: From haute cuisine to mouth-watering comfort food (healthy for the soul) discover a variety of food from vineyard eateries to village cafes. Fish and chips on the beach or �ne dining in award-winning restaurants. You choose.

4. TAKE ALCOHOL IN MODERATION: Board a Fullers Taste of Waiheke or Wine on Waiheke tour with like-minded winter shakers! You’ll need to book in advance but it’ll be well worth it.

5. TREAT YOURSELF: Buy something local. The island has always attracted talented free-spirited artisans who create and exhibit on the island. Painters, ceramacists, sculptors and jewellery makers are just a few of the working artists whose craft can be found in the Waiheke Community Art Gallery, studios, gift stores and the Ostend weekend market.

6. EMBRACE THE SEASON: Outdoor activ- ities will help you to connect with the environment. Wild on Waiheke is just one of the many companies o�ering an engag - ing range of fun activities especially suited for groups. The venue is on a vineyard with laser clay shooting, archery and the gentler sports of beer and wine tasting as well as a cafe for comfort. Better still, book a Fullers Taste of Waiheke tour and it’s one of the major stops!

7. GET SOME VITAMIN D: So it’s winter... but being outdoors during winter is essential! With a Fullers All Day Bus pass you’ll be able to visit the beaches of Onetangi or Oneroa and stretch your legs or take a mid-winter dip! The stroll and the fresh sea air will help nicely with the �nal item on the to-do list....

8. GET MORE SLEEP! A nice euphoria will descend on you as you relax on the ferry ride back to the city. It’s not uncommon to gently nod o� during the 40 minute journey.

So much fun drinking wine with my momma !A BLOG BY ONE OF OUR WINE TOUR GUESTS EARLIER THIS WINTER...

During my mom’s visit we went out to Waiheke Island, a well known wine and olive oil region, so my mom and I signed ourselves up for a half day wine tour! We took a 40 minute ferry ride, which was fun all in itself, and met our tour

guide at the Waiheke port. We hopped on the bus and o� we went! This was tour guide Brian, he was the best! Seriously, if anyone is going to Waiheke and planning a wine tour I recommend this guy; full of information about the island, super friendlyand knew how to time the tour to avoid the rain! First stop, Mudbrick Vineyard...gorgeous! It had beautiful gardens and overlooked the Hauraki Gulf. After tasting several di�erent wines and exploring the gardens we headed to vineyard number two, The Goldie Room... cute and charming, along with great views. Something cool about The Goldie Room: 10 years ago they donated some of their property to University of Auckland. Students who are studying Wine Making can go and study there, and stay while doing an internship. I’ve never even heard of wine making as a Major! Where was that at UNI?? Somehow I don’t think Dan or Sue would approve..Maybe they would? Anyways, after a few nibbles we headed to the third and �nal stop, Te Whau. Te Whau was a very modern and sleek vineyard and had great views of the island. After a few samples and a quick look around it was time to say good bye to our friend Brian. What a great day! So much fun drinking wine with my momma…Cheers Sue! - Shannon. www.sweetkiwis.com

Mudbrick Vineyard and Restaurant is one of Waiheke Island’s success stories.

Back in 1992, owners Nicholas and Robyn were looking for a new challenge away from accountant roles in the city and purchased a lifestyle block on Church Bay Road.

Twenty years on, the vineyard and restaurant are one of the island’s best, producing award-winning wine and superb food using some of New Zealand’s finest ingredients; all in a stunning coastal vineyard setting.
