The Fix

Posted by benbr 9 June 2011

Just great coffee. Always full of uni and hospital staff nipping out for their, erm, fix, and a Dunedin legend for the last 10 years. If it shut the academic output of NZ would fall by 20% and the hospital would close! BYO food any time.

Elm wildlife tours

Posted by Heathmoley 19 October 2009

This half day tour took us to the most incredible beaches where we saw wildlife in it's natural environment and this is so much nicer than zoo conditions.
As with most Kiwis the guide was passionate about conservation and bringing back the wildlife that not that long ago roamed free in NZ.
The highlight was seeing the yellow eyed penguins come home after a day out at sea. They run towards their partners with their flippers out as if to give them a giant hug - very cute!

Check out the local tourism board's website www.dunedinnz.com. There are a few other wildlife operators there too.

Activities on southern NZ beaches

Posted by nilpferd 13 October 2007

I'd just like to point out that you can't really relax in a hammock with cocktail on the southern NZ beaches. They are better suited to sport, BBQ, beachcombing or watching animals. Even in summer you should have windproof clothing to hand, and it is also essential to protect yourself from the high UV levels with long sleeves, hat, suncream etc.

Brighton beach

Posted by nilpferd 13 October 2007

About half an hour's drive south of Dunedin, this is a large beach lying around a small estuary. Great for beachcombing, picnics, surfing and fooling around.
