FCO Country Advice for New Zealand

New Zealand’s capital, Wellington, is situated on the coast in the south of the North Island and is surrounded by rolling hills and has a population of around 180,000. In summer (January) the average maximum daily temperature is around 20 degrees C (69F) dropping to an average minimum of 6.2C (43F) in winter (July).

his is a great country for driving with well kept roads and stunning scenery. The two islands are well served by ferry and air services. Rather than a comprehensive network of railway services, New Zealand offers a collection of scenic rail journeys. They’re a great way to experience magnificent remote areas that are not accessible by road.

Weather
New Zealand has a temperate climate, but has sharp regional contrasts. You can be on a hot sandy beach one minute and within a half hour drive walking on a snow swept glacier.
