Zealandia is an amazing visit as a pest free "mainland island", allowing native flora and fauna to flourish. There are many different walks around, with varying accessibility from wheelchair friendly concrete paths to narrow rocky tracks. All walks have great views and awesome bird life, if in doubt, the visitor centre will answer all your questions.

Amazing views out to sea high above SH1 on a steep but well graded track that takes a few hours one way. Make sure to organise return transport as this is not a loop path. There are often busses or trains available to take you back to your start point.

The tracks along the wild south coast offer great wildlife encounters with seals and sea birds - make sure to stay far away from the animals to avoid issues. There are also great mountain bike tracks from Polhill Reserve all the way down to the coast.

Super cute little cinema that has a surprisingly large selection of films to choose from. Cinemas are small, cosy and comfortable. The cafe also allows their hot meals and drinks to be taken into the cinema during the film - now that is comfort!
