旅の径:“If you haven't taken a photo with the driftwood decoration "HOKITIKA", you have not been to Hokitika or the west coast of the South Island. The first page of the Hokitika tourism brochure compiled by the New Zealand Tourism Board is a photo of the sunset accompanied by "HOKIDIKA". Walk west from the town's clock tower for 3 minutes, pass through a small gatehouse, and Hokitika Beach is right in front of you, with the whistling sea breeze and the surging waves hitting the black stone beach. The driftwood decoration and the stone green sofa not far away are the most eye-catching objects on the beach. When there are many tourists, they consciously line up to check in. The residents of the town are almost obsessed with the driftwood "HOKIDIKA". Whenever a strong wind destroys part or all of the decoration, they must use the driftwood branches available everywhere on the beach to repair it as new within 24 hours.”

王海娃子:“New Zealand is a very young country, with a history of more than 100 years and little to be said for. However, the brief gold rush era was an important page in the history of this country, and many relics of that time are preserved here.”

想飞的鱼0627:“There is a coastal road in Melbourne that is a paradise for self-driving enthusiasts. This is the Great Ocean Road. The Great Ocean Road was actually built to commemorate the soldiers of the First World War. In the early days of its establishment, many surviving veterans participated in it, so it is of great significance. After its completion, the Great Ocean Road is 300 kilometers long and has attracted many people to visit. Here you can see the waves hitting the beach.”

Boat tour
Open today at 07:45-13:15
138***43:“We saw two sperm whales, and the sound of their tails was very shocking. Many dolphins chased the boat and played with it. Albatrosses floated leisurely on the sea. Standing on the bow of the boat gave us a feeling of riding the wind and waves. Be sure to buy tickets a few days in advance, as you may not be able to buy tickets at the last minute and will have to wait and see.”

蟹斜橙:“Taking photos is not allowed in the conservation center, and the flash will affect the penguins returning to their nests. The little penguins are so cute that we bought penguin dolls after seeing them. The quality of tourists is not very good, mainly Asian tourists. They always break the rules of keeping quiet and not using mobile phones.”

Anonymous user:“I think this place is quite fun. It's right next to the airport parking lot. I stopped by before returning my car to Christchurch Airport and enjoyed free parking. The tickets I bought on Ctrip were very convenient to show directly. The entire tour lasted about two hours. I rode a polar car, experienced an Antarctic storm, watched a 4D movie, and saw penguins and sled dogs.”
