My Kaikoura Walks Guide
Kaikoura is a beautiful place to walk, hike, and explore. Located right on the coast in the South Island of New Zealand, it’s the whale watching capital of the country. You’re sure to see them even from the beach.
There are also plenty of smelly seals lazing around on the rocks right beside the main highway just before Kaikoura town.
With its stunning scenery and diverse terrain, it’s no wonder that so many people come here to enjoy the great outdoors. There are walks of all levels of difficulty, from easy loop tracks to challenging multi-day hikes.
