Things to do in Dunedin New Zealand - Wildlife Cruise - Tours Activities

Situated on the lower east coast of the South Island, Dunedin is often referred to as the Edinburgh of the south as much of the layout and street names descend from Edinburgh, Scotland. Dunedin has a population of 150,000 people spread throughout rolling hillsides and two great beaches (St Kilda & St Clair). All around the coastline fantastic native wildlife can be seen from the rare yellow eyed penguins, seals to the giant albatross which is great for Dunedin wildlife cruise.

People from Dunedin are proud of their heritage and huge rugby union supporters. As a tip, check out the Speights Brewery and Cadbury Chocolate Factory Tours – these are a must do while in Dunedin. Also, the Octagon, in the centre of Dunedin, is a hive of festivity containing a wide range of bars, restaurants and cafes.
