Planning a trip around Aotearoa in the near future? Well, you can cross these five spots off your must-visit list.
From Taupō's self-described "iconic" Huka Prawn Park and the overcrowded sand baths at Coromandel's Hot Water Beach, to the decidedly average Moeraki Boulders in Waitaki - there are some places that just aren't worth your time or money.
Have you visited any of the 'attractions' on our list? Do you agree that they are overrated? If not, what makes them so great?

Ramp fees, mooring and marina berthing fees for Lake Taupō are all going up by 22 per cent with further raises possible in the next 3 years.
The fee rises mean a current casual (24hrs) ramp fee of $5 increases to $6, while a 12 months ramp fee of $90 increases to $110. More substantial dollar value increases are seen in marina berth fees, for example a parallel, over 12.5m length berth at Taupō and Motuoapa marinas goes from $4000 annually to $4880.
The DIA says it will bring the fees on Lake Taupō into line with other lakes and marinas around the country.

The new intersection layout includes two right turning lanes from Norman Smith Street into Wairakei Drive, pedestrian crossings, cycle lanes and two lanes on Wairakei Drive merging before the Control Gates bridge.
Taupō District Council’s head of operations Kevin Strongman said the traffic flow would improve as road users got used to the new layout and any required adjustments to phasing of the signals were made.
