Pounawea Bush Walk

Indulging in an impromptu picnic / meal at Surat Bay overlooking the estuary is fun. Watch the locals gut the fish catch earlier in the day. Paddle in the tidal water or explore the Pounawea Bush Walk. It is outstanding for its bird song. The walk entrance is adjacent to the Pounawea Holiday Camp. Perhaps you have picked up walkers on the Surat Bay track. You will return on the same road into Surat Bay and cross the Catlins River at the junction of Dutton Rd and New Haven Road.
