Te Anau to Invercargill

The Southern Scenic Route took us south of Te Anau to the coast and then west along the coast, undulating through fertile farmland all the way.

We turned off to a lot of signposted beach and headland areas along the way, with names like Manapouri, Rakato Wetland, Waiau River estuary, Cosy Nook, Colac Bay, Monkey Island and Gemstone Beach.
