OBAN (HALFMOON BAY), NEW ZEALAND
Oban hangs beneath the South Island and is just about the last
inhabited place before Antarctica. The island itself is only about four
percent inhabited, and that is its attraction. It is a pristine piece of
primeval New Zealand.
WELLINGTON, NEW ZEALAND
Wellington is nestled between a magnificent harbor and a natural
amphitheatre of forest-clad hills. Its compact size, combined with
cultural sophistication, makes it New Zealand’s most inspiring urban
destination.
PHILLIP ISLAND, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA
The best of Australia all comes together across nature reserves with
kangaroos, fur seals, occasional dolphins, whales, and the sunset
“penguin march” as the birds return to their beach nests.
