Do you crave dramatic and unusual natural landscapes and scenery, coupled with an abundance of outdoor activities? If so, New Zealand’s Punakaiki will be right up your street! Sitting on the South Island and within 400 kilometres of Christchurch, it is an excellent addition to any New Zealand travel wish list. It is also within easy reach of plenty of other attractions, so why not have a look at our excellent Punakaiki hotels today?
The area is well known for its incredible blow holes, where you can watch as jets of water are blown up to 15 metres. It’s one of Mother Nature’s spectacular performances. Another famous sight in the area are the Pancake Rocks. Stunning rock formations that have been created over thousands of years as the waves from the sea crash and pound against the limestone. Enjoy climbing, caving, and bouldering amongst the magnificent rocks and caves.
You can explore the surrounding gorgeous scenery by foot, bike, and horseback, and the area also offers terrific swimming, kayaking, canoeing, surfing, and fishing. There are several pretty beaches where you can relax and recharge your batteries. Sunsets from the beach are divine, an ideal activity for romance seekers.
The world’s only breeding centre for the Westland Petrol is within easy reach, and there you can admire these graceful birds up close. Culture vultures will not be disappointed – watch artists at work and see how local products are made, including glassware and knives. Visitors can return home with a brilliant selection of local handicrafts.
The Paparoa National Park can be found near Punakaiki, with heaps of natural treasures. Take an excursion to Fox Glacier, which also lies along the West Coast, and perhaps also pay a visit to Westport.
Punakaiki offers a good selection of places to eat and drink, and you can also pack a picnic to enjoy in some of the world’s most beautiful scenery. Check out our cheap flights to Christchurch and our fantastic accommodation in Punakaiki and start counting down to your memorable and action-packed vacation.
