Sightseeing

So many ways to explore Dunedin. From boats on the harbour, wildlife guided tours, motorbike, private car or walking.
Albatross colony tours or just visit the great info centre and if it’s a windy day, maybe see Albatross flying from the car park. Many other wildlife and scenic places of interest on the peninsula. Great for a day trip.
