Overview
The beautiful New Zealand city of Dunedin enjoys a spectacular location on the beautiful Otago Peninsula and it’s a wonderful destination for culture-based breaks or outdoor activity holidays. Summer is a famous and most-talked about time for cycling and mountain bike holidays, thanks to the long hours of daylight and the mild weather. The wildlife aficionados can grab the opportunity to visit the only mainland breeding colony of Northern Royal albatross in the world or to see some rare yellow-eyed penguins.
Visitors passionate for rich architecture and history are surely to be in their element – fantastic Larnach Castle dominates the Otago ridge and dates from the 19th century, while other eye-catchy and worthy buildings comprise the Knox Church and the Municipal Chambers.

Dunedin experiences snowfall every couple of years and does get cold and slick in the winters. The most ideal time to spend your long-awaited holidays in Dunedin is from January to May - the fiery orb (the sun) is mostly out, therefore warm weather, and temperatures range between 44 and 60.
