  • Auckland Anniversary Day, Monday, 26 January 206011 Dawn After the Vicious Cyclone12 Overnight, Dawn Breaks Gently to the Ebullient Calls of the Birds
    Part 12. Auckland 2060 Auckland Anniversary Day, Monday, 26 January 206011 Dawn After the vicious cyclone12 overnight, dawn breaks gently to the ebullient calls of the birds. The light spreads rapidly across the huge city and its beautiful hinterland of bush and beach. Any of the volcanic cones offers a good view of this sweeping panorama across our thriving Auckland region. Mount Hobson, though – close to the historic heart of the city where water and land, our two abundant sources of wealth, meet – has a special place in the region’s story. Today is Auckland’s Anniversary Day. And Mount Hobson is named after the man who decreed it an annual holiday for the Auckland Province. That was 218 years ago.13 But if Hobson were standing up on this namesake cone this morning, he would still readily recognise this wide vista across the Waitemata Harbour and to the scattering of islands beyond. If his eyes were sharp, he’d spot small boats drifting in the lee of Rangitoto. If he thought those people were fishing, he’d be right. Over the years, we’ve learnt lots about restoring the ecosystem of our Hauraki Gulf Marine Park.14 But he’d be puzzled if he looked down below Mount Hobson. When Ngāti Whātua, the first settlers here, offered him the pick of the harbour’s land to build a new city, he chose a graceful string of little hills and bays at the foot of this volcano.15 Now, a flat, angular shoreline reaches out into the harbour. Landfill a century or more ago formed the extra land to accommodate a booming city.

This survey of 699 individuals gives a 4-week snapshot of VFR activity in the Bay of Plenty in summer 2016 including Auckland Anniversary and Waitangi Days; and a week at Easter during the Tauranga Jazz Festival. Issues investigated are: VFR profile, social dynamics which affect participation; activity patterns; the image of the Bay of Plenty; destination management issues that affect image; and the impact that VFR have on the visitor economy. Issue Top line results VFR profile The proportion of VFR hosts to guests surveyed is 2.5 to 1. 70% of all the people surveyed are either VFR hosts or guests. Females are more likely to be hosts as well as guests. New Zealanders are more likely to be hosts than visitors. Australians are more likely to not be VFR. UK visitors are VFR visitors. VFR hosts are more likely to be over 66 years, with average income. VFR visitors are usually much younger and wealthier than their hosts Cars are the most common mode of transport for hosts.
