Just 85 kilometres (2-hour drive) from Christchurch, Akaroa - a charming historic seaside village is nestled in the heart of an ancient volcano. First settled by the French in the 19th century before New Zealand was officially claimed by the British. Even today you find the main streets retain their French heritage and some of the early forms of architecture relate to those early days.
From dolphin watching, sight seeing, relaxing in beachfront cafe, Giant Park vist, a historic lighthouse walk to village wandering, Akaroa tour is a popular weekend retreat for many people living in Christchurch city.
