The West Coast of New Zealand is an untamed natural wilderness.With scenery so stunning it takes your breath away, it takes a while to get around the largest region in New Zealand, but the journey is the best bit. Stretching North to South some 600km - the same distance from Auckland to Wellington - the West Coast of the Southern Alps, New Zealand is a long, thin piece of paradise no wider than 70km at any one point. You journey may include: Westport and Karamea in the Buller District, Punakaiki with its world famous blowholes – Reefton - Greymouth (Mawhera) the heart of the West Coast - Moana - Lake Brunner – Hokitika, (cool little town) – Franz Josef and Fox Glaciers - Haast, with its World Heritage Area.The wild Tasman Sea pounds its coastline on one side while the Southern Alps provide a stunning mountain backdrop on the other.

 

The vast coastline of the West Coast offers a wide range of opportunities for walks, activities, wildlife viewing and good old relaxation. From the highest of mountains and stunning coastal scenery to copious rainforests and absolutely everything in between – you’re just spoilt for choice all of the way. Along your journey you will meet Coasters (real kiwi locals) who will provide you with true Kiwi hospitality.
