🇳🇿New Zealand West Coast Hokitika: seaside, forest, treetops, blue river

Coming to the small town of Hokitika on the west coast of the South Island is a real sense of “slow life”. Although it is not big, each attraction has its own characteristics, perfect for those who like natural scenery and do not want to be too crowded. Hokitika Beach This beach is best known for the driftwood, piled into art installations, especially the word "HOKITIKA", which many tourists take pictures of. I passed dusk that day, the sky was golden yellow, with the sound of the waves, the photos were really beautiful no matter how you take them. Glow Worm Dell At night you can walk to Glow Worm Dell, which is very close to the town centre. The path is not long, and once inside you will see the trees sparkling like a mini starry sky. West Coast Treetop Walk It’s pretty cool to go for a treetop walk, twenty meters above the ground, looking at the rainforest and distant mountain views, you really feel like you’re flying in the canopy. You can also go up to the observation tower with great scenery and zipline play. Hokitika Gorge The most surprising thing is Hokitika Gorge, the river is so blue that it seems fake. The trail is easy to walk, the suspension bridge takes a great feel, the rocks and the emerald green water are very beautiful. The whole place is quiet and perfect for slow walking. But note that there are more sand crickets. --- Hokitika is not as lively as the big cities, but has a comfortable, relaxing rhythm for those who want to relax. There is no need to rush the attractions, every place is worth slowly enjoying. Have you ever been to this quiet yet tasteful town? #New Zealand Trip #Beach #Fireflies
