First-time visitors should expect a low-key coastal site where the draw is the setting rather than facilities. Driving is on the left, and hiring a car is how most people get around the bigger islands. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast. Hāngī, a meal cooked in an earth oven, and the pavlova dessert are both part of New Zealand food culture.
