South Otago and Southland, situated at the foot of the South Island, offer dramatic scenery that spans pristine rainforests, fertile farmlands and sweeping coastlines. Destination Clutha / YouTube Nugget Point is one of the many great places to visit in the South Island's Clutha District. Once you're done with the lighthouse and Nuggets, go back and take the path down to Roaring Bay. Here you'll find a hide for watching the hoiho, yellow-eyed penguins, one of the rarest penguin species in the world. INSIDER TIPThe café is also Lumsden’s Post Shop, if you’re short of a stamp for that postcard.
