About the West Coast

Greymouth is a great base for exploring the wonders of the West Coast.  There is the Franz Josef and Fox glaciers to the south, and Punakaiki's Pancake Rocks and the infamous West Coast Road to the north - and that is just the beginning of so many things to discover and explore in the region.
