Tahunanui

Tahunanui is known for its beaches, and you can plan a trip to Natureland Zoo and Tahunanui Beach Reserve while you're in town.

Tahunanui
At the very top of the South Island of New Zealand lies Wharariki Beach, one of the most unspoilt beaches you'll find anywhere in the country and a real highlight on our recent trip up North.

If you make a visit to well known Abel Tasman National Park, be sure to go slightly further north and include a stop at this magnificent part of New Zealand - particularly at sunrise or sunset

Great location to explore wineries and outdoor activities. Dining options were very impressive. Small towns usually don’t have restaurants of high quality, but the options in Nelson were excellent.

Nelson is a beautiful town with lovely parks, beaches and a small pedestrian area in the city center with bars and restaurants offering many dining options. We wish we could have stayed longer.
