Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August, so visitors plan around the cooler months. New Zealand weather is changeable, and the surrounding ocean keeps both summer heat and winter frost moderate, which makes layering useful.

Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common around the coast, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen offshore. New Zealand cooking features lamb, dairy and seafood, including green-lipped mussels, bluff oysters and crayfish. The Anchor Chain sits in a part of the island where the sea shapes daily life.
