If you come to Hamilton looking for fun, excitement or a dose of adrenalin, you certainly won’t leave disappointed. There’s bound to be aquatic, family or thrilling activities either here or not too far away, from marine mammal encounters and eco-tourism adventures to cruises and jet-boat rides. New Zealand is the ‘Adventure Capital of the World’, so adrenalin-pumping action is found all over the country. Jet boating and white-water rafting are exhilarating ways to check out the country’s crystal-clear rivers and magic scenery. If you would rather stay dry then there’s a myriad of land and air-based activities on offer too. The brave can try bungy jumping, the slightly less courageous can enjoy a tandem hang-glide or parapent, or for the ultimate thrill there is the free-fall skydive. Plus, abseiling or exploring the captivating cave systems that riddle both the North and South Islands should definitely be on your to-do list.
