Plan your visit

  • Choose your stops

    1 outing around Punakaiki. Pick a local cluster rather than combining the whole region into one day.

  • Check the starting point

    The visitor circuit starts at Dolomite Point beside SH6 in Punakaiki, between Greymouth and Westport. Check DOC's current parking charges and pay-on-arrival guidance.

  • Allow for extras

    Entry, transport, parking and optional tours can have separate charges. Use the admission filter, then confirm the exact visit with its operator.

Wider regional travel notes

Punakaiki, Hokitika and glacier country are separate stops along a long coastline. Keep weather-dependent tours flexible and avoid booking tightly timed activities on the same driving day.
