Dunedin

Dunedin blends Scottish heritage and a lively university culture with the wildlife-rich Otago Peninsula, where albatross, penguins and dramatic coastline sit close to the city.

Dunedin lies on the south-east coast of the South Island, with a compact historic centre opening towards the Otago Peninsula. Its architecture and university culture give the city a distinct personality.

Wildlife on the peninsula

The Otago Peninsula is one of the region’s great strengths, supporting important seabird and penguin habitats as well as dramatic coastal scenery. Specialist guided visits help manage sensitive wildlife encounters responsibly.

Architecture, food and the south

Dunedin’s historic streets and cultural institutions reward time in town, while the surrounding region connects naturally with the Catlins and Central Otago.
