Small in stature but packing a punch, this hardcover, A5 little book, has 208 pages of colour images and informative text. It's a little thickie that feels [and is] substantial. Covering the entire country from Cape Reinga to past Bluff, there is more regional diversity than ever before. There is a mix of ever-popular city beaches, coastal icons and surprises between. Easy to own or gift - it is inexpensive to send and not too bulky to travel with.
