- Westland National Park and Fox Glacier: dramatic glacier flowing down to rainforest, with a backdrop of New Zealand’s highest snow capped peaks.
- Paparoa National Park and the impressive pancake rocks and blowholes at Punakaiki.
- The West Coast, (or Te Wahi Pounamu) is rightly recognized as a World Heritage Area, and is where "The Lord of the Rings" was filmed.
