Oamaru

#summervacay Oamaru is a quirky and captivating town with a mix of Victorian elegance and steampunk flair. The historic precinct is home to beautifully preserved limestone buildings, artisan shops, and galleries. Summer is the perfect time to stroll the heritage streets, visit the Steampunk HQ museum, and enjoy local food and craft beer. Just down the road, you can visit the Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony and watch the world’s smallest penguins return from the sea at dusk. It's a town full of character and charm that surprises and delights all who visit.
