The South Island of New Zealand is truly remarkable and varied,
from the plains of Canterbury and native forests of the West Coast
to the peaks of the Southern Alps, the scenery is spectacular,
for those with an adventurous or sporting streak and there is
a myriad of activities available, Tramping, Skiing, Rafting, Jet
Boats rides, Bungy Jumping, Gliding ... and if that is all too
much for you, try a punt ride on the Avon River in Christchurch.
Also in the South Island is the tourist capital of New Zealand
- Queenstown. Where the beautiful shores of Lake Wakatipu lie
at the feet of the Remarkable Mountains in the Southern Lakes
District - a must visit place.
