KAIKOURA TOP 10 HOLIDAY PARK

Care for a leisurely stroll to town for a coffee? How about watching a pink-andorange haze creep over the Seaward Kaikōura Ranges at dawn? This holiday park is smack in the centre of it all and, with its range of self-contained units and campsites, is a popular choice for couples, families and backpackers. Anyone who's struggled to find parking in a campervan will rejoice at the proximity to town — walk to the local pub in five minutes or Whale Watch in seven. While visitors tend to sightsee during the day, the holiday park has plenty of onsite activities including a game room, barbeque area, a heated pool, a spa and playground. 34 Beach Road, Kaikōura.
