Workation in Gisborne: the essentials
The sun reaches Gisborne earlier than any other city in New Zealand, a point locals are happy to make. About 38,000 people live here on Poverty Bay, where James Cook first landed in the country in 1769 and where Māori culture remains very present in daily life. Surf beaches such as Wainui and Makorori lie just north of town, chardonnay vineyards fill the plains, and the Rhythm and Vines festival draws crowds at New Year. Gisborne Airport is about 3 km from the centre. The isolation is real: any larger city means hours on winding roads.
