For anyone visiting North Island, the seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, so December to February is summer and June to August is winter. Rugby union is followed closely nationwide, and the national team plays in black. Ferries reach Waiheke, the Hauraki Gulf islands and Stewart Island, with a Cook Strait service linking the two main islands. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast.
