Photo & Vacation Spot

Three bright yellow kayaks remain idle on the beach at Okarito Lagoon located on the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand.

Okarito Lagoon sits along the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand and is known as the largest wetland in New Zealand which has remained untouched covering approximately 3,240 hectares. Kayaks are one of the best ways to explore Okarito Lagoon as you can travel up the river channels into the wilderness of the forests or stop and relax on a quiet beach.

Hiking, kayak tours and eco-tours are available around Okarito Lagoon where visitors will find bird watching fascinating as a few species of rare birds are found in this region.
