About
Pharmacy 53, a pharmacy on North Island, stands at 10 Ballance Street, Whataupoko, Gisborne 4010, New Zealand. The shop serves the Whataupoko suburb of Gisborne on the island's east coast.
The pharmacy fills prescriptions and stocks over-the-counter medicines for residents and travellers. Its website at http://www.pharmacy53.co.nz/ carries the shop's details. Gisborne anchors the eastern coast, while Auckland, Wellington, Napier and Tauranga lie further along the island's roads.
Whataupoko sits close to the centre of Gisborne, so the shop is within easy reach for anyone staying in town. A chemist counter is the usual first stop for minor complaints while travelling, and the Ballance Street setting keeps the visit simple.
Seasons on North Island run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August, so packing follows the southern calendar. New Zealand cooking features lamb, dairy and seafood, including green-lipped mussels, bluff oysters and crayfish, which are worth trying while travelling the coast. Ferries reach Waiheke, the Hauraki Gulf islands and Stewart Island, and a Cook Strait service links the two main islands. Customers rate Pharmacy 53 4.2 out of 5 from 76 reviews.
