Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Purakaunui?
The best time to visit Purakaunui is during the summer months, from December to February, when the weather is at its warmest and most settled.

This period offers long daylight hours, with average temperatures ranging from 15°C to 20°C, making it ideal for exploring the Purakaunui Falls and the surrounding Catlins region. The forest trails are generally dry and pleasant for walking, and the longer days mean you have more time to enjoy the natural beauty.

Couples looking for a romantic escape will appreciate the opportunity for scenic drives and coastal walks. The summer months allow for comfortable picnics by the falls and relaxed exploration of the area's unique flora and fauna without the chill of other seasons.

For families, the summer provides the best conditions for outdoor activities, from short bushwalks to spotting local wildlife like sea lions on nearby beaches. Children will enjoy the warmer temperatures for playing by the streams and exploring the natural environment.
