South Island's temperate climate makes summer, from December to February, the most popular season, while winter remains mild at low altitudes. Local food centres on fresh seafood, lamb, dairy and wines, which suits a coastal stop. Domestic flights and ferries link the islands, and English and Māori are the main languages. First-time visitors should expect an outdoor coastal walk rather than a built visitor centre, with the sealions themselves as the focus.
