Join us as we continue to explore the Nelson Tasman region of New Zealand, reunited with our Kiwi friends from Rotorua! From our base in Kaiteriteri, we were central to everything and our accommodation was within walking distance to the beach.
Since we were visiting in June during the Winter Solstice we decided to celebrate the shortest day of the year with a polar plunge in the ocean!
After warming up, we took a short but scenic drive to the nearby town of Mapua Wharf. When we arrived we were greeted with numerous shops, boutiques, cafes and restaurants. You could also take a ferry from here for a tour of the nearby Rabbit Island!
We spent the afternoon enjoying the town and then treated ourselves to some yummy ice cream. Once we were back home, we had another delicious dinner together.
The next day, we drove to Lake Rotoiti which is located in the Nelson Lakes National Park next to St Arnaud. The region is an enchanting alpine landscape of rugged peaks, forests and stunning glacial lakes.
We enjoyed a beautiful hike through the woods and then walked back along the lake for a picnic lunch on the jetty. Talk about the perfect setting! We even saw some native eels swimming in the waters below.
On our last day together we drove to Nelson to visit Pic's Peanut Butter World. From humble beginnings in the local markets, they have grown to become New Zealand's best-loved peanut butter and now export products around the world. We took a tour behind the scenes and enjoyed some savory samples along the way.
After saying goodbye to our friends, we were invited to visit a wonderful family residing near Motueka on a riverside farm. We had a delicious meal with them, enjoyed playing table tennis and tasted Persimmons and Feijoa fruits for the first time!
Kaiteriteri is simply beautiful with golden sandy beaches and clear water. It's the perfect place to lay back and relax all year round!
