Family days out and vacations don't have to mean soul destroying traffic jams on the motorway or fights over the only camp bed. And, in truth, reading the excellent tips on Been there for great family getaways won't necessarily turn yours into the Brady Bunch. But it could bring you one step closer to family trip Nirvana or at least show you what you're missing.

    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.

    If you are remotely interested in wildlife you will love both visits.

    The albatross centre has fantastic displays and you can either take a tour ($30) or go to the cliff tops and watch these fantastic birds soaring through the skies.

    At Penguin Place you will see yellow-eyed penguins on the tour ($33). This is the only mainland place in the world you will see them. They are shy creatures but do actually come out of the sea before dusk and so are very easy to spot.

    Binoculars are recommended for both trips, but are not a must.
