Taupo is a popular town located in the central region of the North Island. It sits on the edge of 'the big puddle' as locals call it, or as we know it - the lake. Although it's the largest lake in the country, with a surface area that is as big as the entire country of Singapore, it is usually quite calm and enjoyable for a variety of watersports. The town also provides a visually impressive base for those who like to mountain bike, hike, fish, relax, party or star gaze.
