The wonders of Auckland © Ella Mueller Celestial navigation is the traditional technique of finding your way around the ocean. To put it simply - by looking at the sun, stars, moon and planets, one is able to find latitude whilst out at sea. New Zealand is a nation of born sailors, with sailing weaved intrinsically through its culture. Aotearoa was settled by Maori ancestors who circumnavigated the Pacific Ocean using only the stars and constellations to find their way. Aotearoa is a place that invites the experience of sailing, boasting over 15,000km of coastline, and many islands. The country’s location in one of the planet’s major wind belts, and its seas are good for all kinds of sailing – from cruising in sheltered waters, to ocean-voyaging.
