Oamaru


Oamaru, the end of the line for the A2O (Alps 2 Ocean) Cycle Trail. It's worth taking some time to look around this townthere are some interesting sights.

Further along there's a place where you can see blue penguins coming ashore at dusk or going out to sea at dawn. Right now, there's just a few fur seals.

Penguins come ashore and go into these boxes for the night. There's a charge to stay here after 4:30pm to see them, and photography is banned. So we decided to wait for another opportunity.

Nearby, this wharf appears to have been abandoned to the shags and gulls.

 Most of them were focussed on their end-of-day preening. This is a spotted shag.

The Victorian Precinct has numerous old buildings and places to explore.
