Description
The Manukau City graticule encompasses the southern portion of Auckland - New Zealands biggest city. The main attraction of Manukau City itself is probably Rainbows End[1], a theme park that is orders of magnitude less exciting than the Australian counterparts. The population is dense and reached 329,300 as at 2006 [2]. It also contains Auckland International Airport [3].
The graticule itself contains the southern extremities of the Waitakere Ranges, the Manukau Harbour, Awhitu Penninsula, and extends southwards towards Raglan, a hippie surfer community, housing the country's best left hand point break. Over half of this graticule comprises the Tasman Ocean.
