Luggage and bags: A good shoulder bag to hold keys, money etc. Although crime in Whangarei isn't rife, it's always a good idea to keep your belongings with you. A shoulder bag helps
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: In the summer, all you'll need is a good pair of jandels, flip flops or thongs as the Aussies call them. A light weight top for the cooler evenings, a hat - especially if it's roasting and your togs (swimming costume)!!
In the winter it gets cold and rains a lot so bring your winter woollies and a umbrella or a raincoat!
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Remember also to bring loads of sunblock! The sun in New Zealand is pretty fierce and you only have to be in the sun unprotected for about 10 minutes to be badly burned! This is from Ozone depletion (the Ozone Hole) down over Antartica. Skin cancer is a major problem in NZ and if you don't want to be another statistic than slap on the sunscreen! SPF 15 is ideally what should be used! In some places if you are camping you may need some insect repellent. There are no disease carrying insects in NZ.
Photo Equipment: A polaroid filter would be an advantage for SLR cameras, especially if you are by the water.
