Frequently asked questions about cabins in West Coast

  • What are some under-the-radar gems to discover on the West Coast of New Zealand?

    For something off the beaten track, check out the Hokitika Gorge with its vibrant turquoise water, or explore the less-visited sections of Paparoa National Park, perhaps hiking to the Pororari River. The charming little town of Greymouth, while not entirely unknown, often gets overlooked in favour of its more famous neighbours; it's worth a wander around its historic streets. Further south, the Knights Point Lighthouse offers stunning coastal views and a sense of remoteness.
