Waitangi Treaty Grounds
The Waitangi Treaty Grounds is New Zealand's most significant historic site.
The Treaty of Waitangi, signed on February 6th 1840 between Maori chiefs and the British Crown became the basis for life in New Zealand as we know it today.
This unique and distinctive location is considered a 'must see' destination.
The Treaty Grounds are set in extensive park-like grounds, with abundant native bird life, heritage trees and stunning sea views of the Bay of Islands.
