Activity itinerary

Nugget Point Lighthouse

  • 1h
A short walk takes us to the spectacular Nugget Point Lighthouse, perched above wave-battered sea stacks known as “The Nuggets.” Keep an eye out for seals sunning on the rocks and seabirds soaring above the ocean below.

Purakaunui Falls

  • 30m
A quick and easy forest walk brings you to this stunning multi-tiered cascade. One of the most photographed waterfalls in the country—and for good reason.

Papatowai

  • 1h
We stop in the peaceful Catlins village of Papatowai for lunch and to explore the wonderfully quirky Lost Gypsy Caravan, a handcrafted gallery of kinetic art and oddities that’s sure to spark your imagination.

Curio Bay

  • 1h 30m
At Curio Bay, step back in time as you walk across the remains of a 180-million-year-old petrified forest (visible at low tide). You may also see endangered yellow-eyed penguins or Hector’s dolphins nearby. Alternative: If tides allow, we may visit the Cathedral Caves, two dramatic sea caverns accessible via a short forest and beach walk (entry fee applies).

Invercargill

  • 30m
A short stop in Invercargill offers a chance to stretch your legs and have a quick bite to eat before we continue our journey
