Visit Curio and Porpoise Bays to experience a Jurassic-era petrified forest, view rare and endangered species and enjoy a range of recreational activities in a spectacular, unspoiled setting by the sea. There’s a lot to love about these two Otago bays. There is everything from yellow eyed penguin to dolphins and other amazing wildlife. I love exploring the bays and discovering something new every time.
Experience for yourself one of New Zealand’s endangered species – in fact, bring your togs and swim with them! The Hectors dolphins are tiny, growing to a mere 1.5 metres in length. But that’s not all Curio Bay has to offer! There are also an abundance of fossilised remains of an ancient forest to be seen at low tide, as well as walking tracks and other wildlife such as yellow eyed penguins, fur seals and seal lions.
