Kiaora . next trip out west you should go check out waipoua forrest, a little north of the kai iwi lakes. giant ancient forest treks

@BeingBedingfield Год назад

Aww! I really wanted to go there!! We left a bit late that day. Oh well, we’ll have to back 😅🤗it really sounds amazing!

@geotruthnz7013 Год назад

To enjoy the best of the beaches you really want to go on offshore winds. So head to the west coast in Easterly winds and go to the east coast in westerly winds. It will make the world of difference to the enjoyment of your trips with no wind issues and better weather. But good on you for pushing through the average conditions.

@BeingBedingfield Год назад

Thanks for the tip! We’ll definitely keep it in mind next time 🙏😊

Beautiful drone shots! You two made the most of a rainy day! Thanks for taking us along! ~Cara 😊

@BeingBedingfield Год назад

Thanks for watching Cara. Craig had the time of his life flying his drone in these areas 😅

@bobolulu7615 Год назад

I was born and grew up in this area. I have spent decades at Baylys and the Lakes. In the 60s the lakes were right up by the road edge.

@BeingBedingfield Год назад

Wow! What a beautiful place to spend your childhood! Can’t believe the lakes went up to the road’s edge 😱

@joh5073 Год назад

You would love the Wild West Coast of the South Island.I have binge watched all your videos, and have loved watching your adventures. You certainly know how to live life to the full.

I caught Many a great Trout fly fishing in those Lakes In my younger days when I lived in N.Z.

My dad loves trout fishing! We’ll have to take him when he comes for a visit 😅

Its like these 2 are on their 2nd honeymoon 😂 Love the beaches there the blend of landscape and water is magical, something different from tropical

@BeingBedingfield Год назад

😂 love it…2nd honeymoon 😅 The landscapes are really impressive…and it’s amazing how different the west coast is compared to all the bays and tropical feeling on the east

@bethcollier3789 Год назад

Awesome reminder shots on how spectacular our Northern West Coast is. Being exposed to the rugged weather like it is and yet still a beautiful place to visit. Thank you for your sight-seeing adventures in my back yard, I truly appreciate them. long may you continue.

@BeingBedingfield Год назад

And what a beautiful backyard you have! Northland is just stunning and we were so happy to finally get to the west coast 😍 we’ll definitely be back, I really want to see that forest!

There us a famous New Zealand band called Crowded House and they wrote a song called 4 Seasons In One Day and that describes New Zealand 🇳🇿

Love seeing your enthusiasm for your new home in NZ, it's nice to be reminded how beautiful our little piece of paradise is. It's especially good since you've arrived in one of the crappiest wet starts to Summer we've had in years so if you're happy now, it can only get better from hereon! 😎

Nice vlog (once again) guys - when you start looking at the Pacific Islands (which I know you will eventually do), I strongly suggest Niue as I think it would suit your travel style 🙂

@BeingBedingfield Год назад

Thanks so much Phil...haha you're reading our minds :) We've already been looking at the islands hehe Thanks for the suggestion!

@davidparkes5845 Год назад

Glad to see you both finally came over to the west coast

@BeingBedingfield Год назад

Yeah, and we loved it 🤗 Can you give us a few more recommendations of things to do on the west coast?

Have a tui and a smoked mullet then come to Queensland and we will show u how beautiful it is here !😊😅

@@BeingBedingfield the rugged 90 mile beach from ship wreck bay then northwards, and if your ever around auckland theres the iconic piha.....and theres so much more westcoast beaches....east coast beaches seem to be alot calmer compared to the westcoast side in my opinion.

you should also try Matakohe Kauri museum, but take your wallet Craig as Im sure Chantz will want some Kauri gum carvings from the gift shop lol

@hemanthharrilall5878 Год назад

My guess is that NZ would be much much more colder than Durbs. You are closer to Antarctica

Yes, colder than Durbs…but maybe warmer than Hilton 😅

Don’t think we’ll chance it, those waves looked huge 😅 but it was so beautiful there though 😊

@johanmeischke9189 Год назад

@@BeingBedingfield yeah it's ok as long as you don't swim in areas where there are no waves, The places on a beach where the waves are smaller than average or don't exist are where the rip tides are. If you get caught in a rip, swim across not against the tide. Failing that just float. The rip( referred too as longshore drift by geologists) will eventually dump you back on shore. It's the process by which tombollos are created. Eg mnt msunganui
