Overview

Captain Cousteau and his team rediscover New Zealand. The Calypso travels around its coastline whilst a land team crosses more than 42,000 kilometres of countyside. New Zealand extends from the sub-tropical zone to the sub Antartic and, therefore, has an immensely varied fauna and flora. The team discover amongst the wonders of New Zealand: the Argonaut, the kiwi, black coral, and the giant moa.
