Go to the beach! Dunedin has a great beach culture. There are many beaches in town, with the best ones being St Clair and Pine Hill. St Clair is a little more secluded but also very popular with locals who like to hang out with their friends on the sand or go for a swim in the ocean. Pine Hill is on the other side of the town from Dunedin's central business district (CBD). It's less busy than St Clair Beach and has plenty of space for everyone to enjoy themselves without being bothered by crowds or noise pollution from other people at their own picnic spot! Pine Hill Beach is also a favourable place if you are looking for a serene spot as it doesn't get too crowded even though it's right off one of Dunedin's main streets - Tory Street/Mall Road.
Take a dive or snorkel in the ocean! Pack your swimsuit, sunscreen and rash guard. Sunscreen is a must-have when you’re in the water. If you don’t have any, please buy some before your trip! Wear good shoes that are comfortable and suitable for walking around all day and not just while snorkelling. A pair of socks wouldn't be enough!
Bring an extra pair of sunglasses if you have them especially if they look stylish enough to wear on land. This way, even if one gets lost or broken during your travels through New Zealand's lush landscape, you'll still look stylishly cool for once! The other best way to see Dunedin is to explore it via its amazing scenery. Dunedin is an easy place to visit, with lots of things to do. There is some beautiful scenery that makes it worth seeing on foot or by car.
