With Hawkes Bay boasting over 2,000 sunshine hours per year, it is no wonder that it is a favourite destination for food, wine and outdoor lovers. Hawkes Bay experienced a devastating earthquake back in 1931 and since then the town has been rebuilt whilst still sporting some great art deco buildings. Adventure lovers and outdoor enthusiasts will feel just as homely in Hawkes bay than the wine connoisseurs who have come to love and appreciate the famous local wine. The yearly harvest festival in February always attracts thousands of visitors who have come to sample the local fare. But if you rather indulge into long walks on beautiful and deserted beaches or immerse yourself into a hot soak at the Ocean Spa, then Hawkes Bay will not disappoint.
For property moguls and wanna bees, Hawkes Bay offers plenty of reasons to wanting to stay and never leave. Investors can choose from owning their own vineyard, to farm houses, beach houses, inner city apartments and more to grow their property portfolio. With New Zealand being easily accessible worldwide, it is no wonder why so many Europeans choose to move. Hawkes Bay offers everything a modern lifestyle requires and with its climate it makes for a killer combination.
