Noah's Ark Backpackers
About
The local business Noah's Ark Backpackers in South Island sits at 16 Chapel Street, Greymouth 7805, Nueva Zelanda, and operates as a hostel. The venue is known for its budget beds and shared facilities in a town that serves as a stop on the coastal route.
First-time visitors can expect a backpacker-style stay with communal spaces, and five photographs accompany the listing so the street address remains the primary reference point. Travellers have given the hostel a 4.5 out of 5 average across 364 reviews, and its website at http://www.noahs.co.nz/ serves as its online reference.
Greymouth connects to Christchurch, Nelson, Blenheim, Queenstown, Wanaka, Te Anau and Kaikoura through the island's road network, so the hostel works as a base for moving between the main towns. New Zealand is a long, narrow group of islands, so almost nowhere in the country is far from the sea.
Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August, which shapes when visitors travel. Polynesian settlers reached New Zealand around the thirteenth century, and British colonisation followed from 1840. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast.
