  • The Catlins, a spectacular stretch of coast in New Zealand's South Island. Located between Balclutha and Invercargill it's rugged, untouched & beautiful. Stunning native forests, deserted sandy beaches, cascading waterfalls, huge caves, loads of wildlife, and even the chance to swim with Dolphins. It should be on everyone's bucket list
    Part 2 next week, stay tuned 😁

    I'm so glad you got some blue sky weather in the Catlins. Chelsea was brave swimming in that cold water. When I swam in the south at Monkey Bay it was a run in and run out swim (early December) but the wind was off putting in the Catlins so I just enjoyed the glorious beaches. I've developed an unexpected interest in lighthouses while traveling round our wonderful country and now 'collect' them. Great video, thanks.

      Haha yeh I really like the lighthouse walks too! Would be neat to tick them all off 😁 yeh that water was freezing! We went to Monkey Island after the Catlins and it was pretty cold… well we thought it was but there were plenty of people in the water.

    My old stomping ground! I met my hubby in Telford Polytechnic in Balclutha and he lived at Kaka point. His relatives go to papatowai in the catkins for holidays. There was a lot you showed I had no idea about have definitely put in our book about visiting! Thanks. Great videos

    There have been a few shark attacks at Curio Bay, the last in 2017- Sevengill Sharks, luckily no Great Whites. Such a wild untouched landscape you captured.
    It was cold aye, we didn't want to give up the summer warmth in January so we didn'tgo then, the temperatures then was only 15° also. Hopefully Easter time for us. Another awesome video👍Thanks

      Yeh it didn’t seem all that warm when we were there but it might have been the wind! Awesome spot though huh, thanks for all the Catlins tips 😊

    did you film this in February or simply upload then? the reason I ask is that we're hoping to be there in May, and it occurs to me that if you were freezing in February.....
    thanks

      Just checked some old emails and we were there end of January! The last week of Jan in 2022… all depends on the wind, I think that’s what made it cold. It was work enough to swim and Chelsea swam with dolphins down in Curio bay one morning 👍
