Map of New Zealand

Further down this page I have provided a map of New Zealand created with Google maps.

I have provided brief instructions.

If you are already familiar with using Google maps you can quickly scroll down the page and bypass these instructions.

For a list of regions across both islands see my page on New Zealand Regions.

Navigate the Map Provided Below

Navigating the map that is provided further down the page is pretty straightforward and you can move the maps by:

  • Hovering over the map with your mouse and when you see a hand icon appear hold the mouse button down and simply move it to wherever you want to.
  • Up in the corner, top left, there are arrows that you can also use to move the map up or down.

If, for example, you are flying to Christchurch and intend spending the first couple of days of your holiday travelling down the east coast of the south island in a campervan (just as we did).

You can zoom in to a close up of a location such as Timaru and look at the roads going through or bypassing the town.

Although we landed in Christchurch early in the day so had enough time to drive a bit further south to Oamaru before nightfall, as we wanted to visit the Moeraki Boulders first thing the next morning.

  • To zoom in or out of use the + and/or - keys that are also in the top left just under the arrows.
  • If you double click your mouse button exactly on the spot you want to zoom into, it will zoom and centre that location. To zoom in further just keep double clicking on the location you want more detail of, such as a town.

Views

Different views are available by selecting the buttons in the top right corner. Options include street level and aerial images. Experiment with these views to get more detail.
