Invercargill and Southland Holidays

Invercargill and Southland holidays carefully combine unique cultural attractions and modern city life to bring you the best of both worlds. Invercargill is the gateway of the south and provides the ideal place to explore the stunning scenery, intriguing cultural exhibitions and historical points of interest such as Bluff.

Spend a day or two enjoying Queens Park. It’s home to 80 hectares of impressive blooming gardens, peaceful tree-lined walks, a spectacular bird aviary, animal enclosures and a large playground for children. Located in the park, you’ll also find Southland Museum and Art Gallery, which houses the Maori Gallery, a glimpse into the everyday aspects of pre-European life in New Zealand. A mere 15 minute walk away, you’ll find The Anderson Park Art Gallery, which is home to some of the country’s finest art collections.

Invercargill holidays: the ideal getaway for culture and adventure

Explore the long-stretching coastlines of Invercargill and amble along the vast beaches. Alternatively, pull up a deckchair and immerse yourself in the peaceful surroundings of the coast as you listen to waves lapping the shore.

Don’t miss out on the Bluff Oyster Festival, if you’re in Invercargill in May. This festival sees the town come to life with seafood related festivities and delicious foods to sample. You can even take part in the prestigious oyster-eating competition.

Foodies must take a trip to Blue River Dairy, Southland’s Sheep Milk Cafe and enjoy cheese tastings, as well as getting the chance to try the best cheese roll in Southland.
