This video continues the South Island Tour from West coast via Abel Tasman to Christchurch in April. It is a 2.5 hours drive from Kaikoura to Christchurch. The Pacific coastline is amazing at all times, which is a perfect route for a day trip.

The picturesque coastal town of Kaikōura is the perfect place for marine life encounters, coastal walks, and tucking into a plate of crayfish. It is located on the east coast of south island New Zealand between Christchurch and Picton. Christchurch is 2.5 hrs drive to the south of Kaikoura and Picton is 2 hrs drive where you can catch the ferry across to Wellington. There are few places like Kaikoura, a small coastal village with breath-taking views between mountains and seas. The scenic drive along the east coast is one of the most beautiful state highway. Lots of activities can be done here, you will encounter wales, dolphins, fur seal, sea birds etc. Don't forget to try the crayfish here, fantastic!

Christchurch is the largest city in South Island New Zealand with a population of around 390,000 people. It is one of the world’s most unique destinations, combining urban regeneration and innovation with heritage, culture and exhilarating activity. On Tuesday 22 February 2011 Christchurch was badly damaged by a magnitude 6.3 earthquake, which killed 185 people and injured several thousand. Many heritage buildings were heavily damaged, over a quarter of the buildings in the central business district were demolished. Christchurch rebuild is still working in progress and aiming to develop Christchurch into an innovative and modern community.
