Trees in Burwood Forest, Waimari Beach

Waimairi Beach offers a calm and refreshing escape just moments from Christchurch — golden sand, rolling surf, and the soft rhythm of the Pacific Ocean make it a perfect place to wander and breathe in the sea air. Further north, the Pegasus Track winds through coastal wetlands, dunes, and native plant life, revealing glimpses of Canterbury’s natural beauty and birdlife along the way. Together, Waimairi Beach and the Pegasus Track capture the gentle contrast of sea and land — open, peaceful, and deeply connected to the coastal spirit of the South Island.
