- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 ม.ค. 2024
- In todays episode we left Dunedin behind us and starting our travel journey through the beautiful and very underrated Catlins. Unfortunately, we heard a lot, that not many travellers have the time to visit this part of New Zealand. Our first stop of the video is Kaka Point, followed by the Nugget Point Lighthouse and Jack‘s Blowhole. We spent the night at the Purakaunui Bay DOC campsite, which has the most amazing camping views we have encountered.

Those dolphins are called Hectors Dolphins, one of the smallest dolphin species in the world, they are also an endangered species. Their North Island cousins are called Maui's Dolphins.
Awesome description of Phillipino people. You're so right, they are just amazingly kind, courteous and always have a smile ❤. Thank you Glen and Mado for being the amazing humans that you both are. I am going to plan a trip around Aotearoa because of the beautiful spots yous have invited us to share with yous ❤❤❤God bless you both and your whanau 🙏
We have talked to so many! we think the Philippine people are wonderful :) can't wait to visit the country one day! were glad that our videos have gave you a perspective on the beauty you have in the country :)
I love the Catlins - I grew up holidaying at our family 'crib' just 15min inland from Papatowai in Tahakopa (will be *very* surprised if anyone has ever heard of it!). Most beautiful and wild place - just perfect ❤
Mado is 100% correct, the Warnings are there for a reason Glen and it pays to take notice 👍
I honestly didn't know what to expect thats why 🙈😂
Thanks guys, you are doing us proud with your filming of these wonderful places xx
The Catlins is an amazing place. Love camping at Pounawea and grilling flounder on the campfire 👌👌
Oh that sounds like paradise! prob the best campsite we have come across :)
Recently been watching your videos in my evening's :) Really enjoying alot. love the scenery. thanks for sharing .
Thanks Patricia for tuning in! ❤️
Hi Guys living in NZ is pretty cool and I have been every where over the years but the catlins is one of my favourite places I had a week there two years ago then on to Stewart Island just the most amazing place in the world enjoy our country love your videos
were glad you got to explore your own country as many don't! see as much as you mentioned. catlins was absolutely awesome we loved it too and will remember this place :)

Kahawai fish is what the Philippines guy said!!
Defiantly going there on our next trip down South. Thanks for the post.
Your very welcome :) hope you have a blast!
wow. just wow
Been there, done that and Love it!! Well, no, not all of it, but been mostly there 😉😀🌞🌟👍👌🙌
Wow, what a wonderful video. I am 75 years old and I have been twice on New Zealand. I am wondering if I should rent a van and drive alone on South Island and that is because of your video Guys. The problem is it so far from Norway, more than 26 hours flying time.😞. My last flight from Sideney was 23 hours. Greetings from Norway with wind gusts 62 m per second last night.
make it happen and don't even hesitate my friend :) just make sure you go for a long period of time to justify the long flight! well worth it :)
I'd love to see you back in Northland. The Irish are popular cos so many of us whakapapa to Ireland, that means our ancestors come from there. That was special to see the dolphins.
I know very proud to be in New Zealand and know that us irish have so much history here :)
We love the Catlins! ❤ our favourite spot. We never tire of it
Mado your trifecta of the beanie, shades and blonde hair is what I would have chosen for my GTA wardrobe 🎉😅
😂😂😂 love it! I had to explain to Mado what you meant Caroline haha
I would have to agree the Catins are simply beautiful ,enjoying your adventure
Great vlog as always guys
"Can't believe there's a fridge outdoors, that's so cool !" :)
Can see you two not wanting to leave 🇳🇿 when you reach the end of this journey !
couldn't believe what I was seeing haha :) Don't get us wrong we will be sad to leave don't worry!
Great vid, guys. Haven't been to the Catlins, but it's one spot in the South Island I plan to visit.
Make it happen and don't hesitate my friend :)
Hi,met you in a Store 15min
ago....Gaby and Günni from Germany ...thanks for your Videos...wach them from germany on you tube😊
Haha thanks for tuning in! We didn’t realise we had a German audience lol. Wish you guys all the best!
Great watch!
another beautiful video
Thanks John means alot :) hope your having a lovely day my friend.
LOVE the Catlins! I'm from Timaru and only visited Catlins for the first time a year ago .
wow you need to get out and explore lisa 😉
It was the last place in the South Island that I hadn't seen.
You should try Steam pots. They work for potatoes, vegetables and even chicken..
Place the water in the bottom pot. Steam the rest. Stack up the pots.
Might do wonders.
Thanks for another awesome video.
Regards. South Africa 🇿🇦.
And a Irishman missing out on South Island potatoes - tsk tsk tsk 😂
Might be a struggle with the gas stove! it's not that efficient, I don't think. you would need to cook for quite a while this way, no? No, thank you for tuning in, John!
irish potatoes are still the best in the world haha
Loving watching you explore the Caitlin's, one of my favourite places in the world! Take note of the trees growing sideways, that's because the wind comes in strong off the Southern Ocean direct from Antarctica 🙂
Your man's saying kahawai.A very under rated and prolific fish in southern waters.With care on taking the fish.Dispatch/bleeding.You will enjoy nothing more.They fight like hell😊
Catlins area is an absolute dream of a place to visit. Did you also do relic bay whilst you were there? Right next to Porpoise Bay. A fossilised forest area where some of the fossilised wood is still there on the beach. Just glad you saw those amazing dolphins. Those are some of the smallest in the world and we are lucky to have them in NZ
Just keep travelling around Aotearoa and educating evreyone (icluding Kiwis) of what a beautiful country this really is! 🙂🙂Thank you both so much.
Shot bro ! I'm one of those kiwis ! All these great videos make me want to go traveling around our great country. And slowly
your very welcome! we are doing our best to broadcast it to the world and mostly the kiwis haha :)
Gorgeous guys
The railway line was lifted in the 1980's.
1960's
Awesome!! Thank you! Love our honesty boxes out in the country. Hope you found some eggs!
haha we never found any that day unfortunately! I would honestly buy 50 eggs If I could! we eat litterly about 10 eggs a day
Born and raised in this area didn’t realise how spoiled I was until I’d traveled around the world
Same here
I grew up on a farm just along from the blow hole. Hina Hina.
Been there alot
Gutted! We were in kaka point at the same time 😅 wish we had of seen you as we'd be saying hi.. been watching your videos a lot. If you're passing through Gore and want a hot shower you're more than welcome to stop in.
Oh no would of loving to catch up! this video was probably uploaded 2 weeks after it happened! were are you originally from?
Kaka points my home town
There's no cellphone reception in most of the Catlins, which can be a pain, if you need to be near your ph for some reason.
haha yeah we definitely experienced that!
HER keep saying KAKA was crack up for me as KAKA can mean "Shit" as well lolz.
Wow where is this?!
Glen, Quinoa, pronounced Keen wa 👍🌞
No way I'm going swimming in the sea that far South. Even here is Perth I only swim in the sea mid summer.
Awh shane it ain't even that bad! hahah sure the irish sea is much worst! Discomfort will only make you stronger shane 😉
Pls visit invercargill
That’s our next videos
They eat the smallest crabs not putting them back not happy Glen don't get wrong all Asian's do it that's why the have fished there waters clean they don't give them a enough time to grow bigger, I enjoy watching your videos.

Keep using sunblock and hats!! Please!! Thanks for the super shows.
We apply it every morning dont worry! thanks for caring :)
Most of us kiwis have Irish or Scottish blood
Oh definitely have realised that!
My parents came from Ireland and settled in the Catlins
Quinoa is pronounced keen-wa
The Irish are well known for their drinking and peoms.
they are actually! but I dont drink so I'm the odd one out 😂
you really need to be wearing sunhats and sun lotion in NZ
always wearing 50 factor dont worry :)
Another pearler G & M - thank you. Mado, I am in no doubt of your cooking skills, but it's way too healthy for the likes of me !! Bon Appetit

Kaka point …. Nugget point .
The type of food someone will eat will affect their mental state
You’re totally right that’s why we feel great! Your health is your wealth
