The little Blue Penguin Colony is one of my all-time favourites. I hope it becomes one for you.

Totara Estate is where the New Zealand Frozen Export Meat Industry started.

I think this is one of the best and most diverse mines to visit in New Zealand. Unlike any other.

A nice wee town with a Heritage Precinct where buildings from the days of old still exist.

With over 15 listed walking trails that last about an hour there is so much to see and do.

Have yourself a nice Breakfast, a coffee and enjoy the surrounds for a great morning out.

The steepest street in the world with a gradient of 34.8%. and it has been verified.

Riverstone Castle is about 15 minute's drive north of Oamaru, just before Waitaki Bridge.

Waikouaiti Museum is a must-visit if interested in local history, showcasing the town's rich past.

The Catlins area lies between Balclutha and Invercargill, the falls are 40-minute walk.

Nugget Point is a stunning coastal gem located in the Catlins. Brilliant walking up to the lighthouse.

Museum of bizarre machinery made of copper, gears, pipes, gas cylinders, light and sound.
