The distance between Canberra and Wellington is 2325 km or 1444 miles, so a flight from Canberra to Wellington takes around three and a half hours. You may need to make a stopover in either Sydney or Melbourne before continuing your journey, though.

New Zealand lies approximately 1,500 miles to the east of Australia across the Tasman Sea. Both main islands boast high mountains and receive plenty of rain each year.

Distance Between The Capitals

Many travelers often wonder how far apart the capitals of New Zealand and Australia are. Not only are the two countries geographically close, but they also share unique flora and fauna that cannot be found elsewhere on earth!

The answer to this question is somewhat complex and depends on which points you are measuring. Nonetheless, having the answer before planning your trip can make all the difference!

1. Distance Between Australia and New Zealand

Australia and New Zealand are separated by the Tasman Sea, approximately 1,500 miles (2,600 kilometers) from each of their capitals. This separation has been caused by plate tectonic movement of the continents.

2. Distance Between the Islands

New Zealand's main island, South Island, lies about 500 miles north of Australia and 1,000 miles from Tasmania. North Island, which is slightly smaller but features some high mountains, has also experienced volcanic activity in the past and continues to do so today.

3. Traveling to Australia and New Zealand's capital cities

Traveling to Perth, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide is a breeze with direct flights from all major Australian cities as well as international routes to Perth, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Additionally, there are many coach trips available so that you can see both countries within a relatively short period of time.

4. Travelling between the two islands

You can reach New Zealand's islands in just over an hour from Australia's major cities. This makes travelling there very convenient and affordable. Moreover, you can take scenic railway journeys on The Ghan or Indian Pacific for a real taste of this stunning country.

5. Distance Between the Islands

If you're searching for a more scenic way to get from one island to another, taking the ferry across Cook Strait is your best bet. This journey covers 23 kilometres and takes just over an hour.

6. Travelling between the Islands

When weather permits, it may be possible to navigate between both islands by boat. This offers you a chance to see some of each country's stunning coastlines.

7. Traveling Between the Islands

Traveling from one island to the other can be done, though it will be a long journey. For best results, spend at least a few days on each island.

8. Travelling Between the Islands

The distance between Sydney and Brisbane depends on where you start your flight. From Perth, it will take five hours by plane to reach these two islands; while flights from Melbourne or Adelaide only take three to four hours.
