Waikuku

From boutique shopping to a beautiful beach, the settlement of Waikuku is only 30 minutes from Christchurch city.

This is where the braided Ashley Rakahuri River meets the Pacific Ocean and is home to the largest, least modified estuary in Canterbury. For fun on the beach, boutique shopping, walking, cycling and bird watching you can’t beat Waikuku.
