What is the most beautiful city in New Zealand?

beautiful new zealand
Martin asked:


That is close to beautiful beaches (and water), has great summers and close to good mountains for snowboarding.
Thanks everyone for your answers.
Just to answer a couple of questions. I’m from cape Town South Africa, so was interested in similar cities in New Zealand, I prefer the sea to lakes, so a beautiful beach would be with white sand, clear blue water and good surf. And when I mean great summers, I don’t mean U.K summers which are grey and cold :)
