Hanmer Springs News
The South Island is dominating a survey of the top 10 "must-do's" for Kiwis.
Only three places on the AA Tourism list, compiled from 65,000 online responses, are in the North Island.
The Bay of Islands, the Polynesian Spa in Rotorua, and Cathedral Cove in the Coromandel, did not even make the top three.
Number one is Abel Tasman National Park, followed by Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools and Spa, and then the Abel Tasman Coast Track.
The survey on the 101 Must-Do's for Kiwis website is ongoing with people still able to vote.
AA Tourism General Manager of Marketing Rebecca Cherry said she was not surprised that Abel Tasman National Park was at number one, and has encouraged people to keep voting.
"With so much to see and do in New Zealand we want Kiwis to rate their favourite places and experiences, so that others are encouraged to give something new a go," she said.
