Discover Hidden Gems

Lyttelton Harbour is full of secluded spots and local treasures waiting to be explored. Swim in the calm waters of Charteris Bay or Purau Bay Beach, cruise past the striking Hole in the Rock, and drop anchor at the sheltered hideaway of Pirate Cove. Step back in time at historic Ripapa Island, once a coastal fortification, or wander the walking trails and wildlife sanctuary of Quail Island, home to fascinating history and thriving birdlife.

Every outing offers something new, whether it’s a family day at the beach, a quiet escape into nature, or an adventure across the harbour’s many bays.

Catch of the Day

For keen anglers and boating enthusiasts, Lyttelton Harbour and the wider Banks Peninsula offer some of the South Island’s best fishing grounds. Cast your line for blue cod, gurnard, butterfish, kahawai, and even groper in deeper waters. The sheltered bays provide easy spots for a family day out, while the open waters beyond the harbour promise bigger challenges and rewarding catches. With stunning coastal backdrops and rich marine life, every trip out is an unforgettable experience.
