Top Nature Spots in Otago

I really recommend using public transport instead of renting a car. The buses to key spots are decently priced and you won’t have to find parking everywhere.

Don’t forget to check the weather before your trip! It can change fast; I got caught in a rainstorm on my bike ride. Pack an extra layer just in case!

I suggest wearing good shoes! The path to Tunnel Beach is steep and can be slippery. I learned the hard way, and my sandals just didn't cut it. It made the trek a bit more stressful than it needed to be.

My advice is to wear good walking shoes. The trail can get muddy and slippery, especially after rain. I regretted my flip-flops when I almost took a tumble!

I suggest bringing some snacks and water if you plan to stay a while. There’s not much nearby, and trust me, enjoying a break by the falls with some food is a real plus!

I recommend visiting in the morning around 9 AM to avoid the crowds. The sunlight also hits the falls beautifully at that time, making for some awesome photos!
