Nau mai, haere mai ki Kaikōura. Kaikōura is a unique town on the stunning Coastal Pacific highway on the South Island’s east coast. We might only be a couple of hours from the city, but truthfully, we are a world away from everywhere else. Our central location with Te Pae Convention Centre to the south and Marlborough Convention Centre to the north makes us an easy option for large pre or post meetings and incentive experiences, while also offering the ability to host smaller conferences here in Kaikōura.

 

We invite you to discover what makes Kaikōura so unique – a place that’s one of a kind; invigorating, restoring, and unlike anywhere else on earth.
