New Zealand is a long, narrow group of islands, so almost nowhere in the country is far from the sea. Polynesian settlers reached New Zealand around the thirteenth century, and British colonisation followed from 1840. Hāngī, a meal cooked in an earth oven, and the pavlova dessert are both part of New Zealand food culture. Ferries reach Waiheke, the Hauraki Gulf islands and Stewart Island, and a Cook Strait service links the two main islands.
