Invercargill
Invercargill is the largest centre in Southland. Founded in the 1850’s, New Zealand’s southernmost city, Invercargill, is considered the capital of Southland. Well-equipped with an excellent range of shops, bars and restaurants, Invercargill gains charming old-world character through the Victorian, Edwardian and Art Deco heritage buildings.
Just minutes from the city centre is a great array of coastal landscapes for visitors to explore from the long coastal highway of Oreti Beach, to the native wonders of Waituna Wetlands and Omaui, or the boardwalk on the estuary and heritage wharfs.

Visit Blue River Dairy, Southland’s Sheep Milk Café, where you can enjoy cheese tasting and a chance to try the best cheese roll in Southland. Or have a go at chocolate making with the Seriously Good Chocolate Company.
