Waiheke Island, New Zealand

Vineyards a forty-minute ferry from downtown Auckland rather than a flight away, olive groves and art trails covering the hills between them, and beaches quiet enough that the wine seems to be the main event.

The best time to visit Waiheke Island is Dec–Feb, when typical daytime highs reach about 15°C (59°F).
