Travelling by car gives you the most freedom. This is the case anywhere, but in New Zealand you definitely need a car to explore the most beautiful, remote landscapes. It gives you the freedom to get up at 5 in the morning (like we did here) and witness the mist clearing from the valleys.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Kakapotahi?
For a truly unique and secluded experience in Kakapotahi, the best area to stay is along the coastal stretch, particularly around the few scattered holiday homes and lodges that offer direct access to the Tasman Sea.

This area is largely undeveloped, characterised by its rugged coastline, dense native bush, and the dramatic backdrop of the Southern Alps. Accommodation here is typically found along the main coastal road, with properties often set back from the road, providing privacy and expansive views. It's a place where the sound of the ocean is your constant companion.

Couples seeking a tranquil escape will find this area ideal. The privacy of the lodges, often with private beaches or direct access to walking tracks, creates a ideal setting for relaxation and connection. You can spend your days exploring the unspoilt coastline, enjoying the stunning sunsets over the Tasman Sea, or simply unwinding in a peaceful environment.

Families looking for an adventurous and peaceful holiday will also appreciate this coastal area. The vast open spaces provide plenty of room for children to explore the natural environment, from beachcombing to short bushwalks.
When is the best time to go to Kakapotahi?
The best time to visit Kakapotahi is during the warmer, drier months, generally from December to February (summer) or March to May (autumn).

Summer offers the warmest temperatures, making it ideal for exploring the region's natural beauty and outdoor activities. You'll find longer daylight hours, great for hiking, river activities, and enjoying the coastline. However, this is also peak season, so the area will be busier, and accommodation prices might be higher.

Autumn provides a lovely balance with mild temperatures, fewer crowds, and often clearer skies. The changing foliage adds a beautiful dimension to the landscapes, particularly around the native bush and river valleys. This period is excellent for those seeking a more tranquil experience while still enjoying pleasant weather for exploring.

Winter (June to August) brings cooler temperatures and significantly more rainfall, which can limit outdoor activities, though the dramatic, rugged landscapes can be quite striking.
