Site visitors shared their favourite places.

In general New Zealanders love their outdoors and make regularly use of it. Spending time with family and friends is an important part of day to day life. As diverse as the occasions to picnic are as diverse are the settings picnics are held in. Having a picnic at the beach, on a tramp, a BBQ close to the beach, in one of the numerous Regional Parks or city parks like Cornwall Park belongs to being Kiwi.

Occasions may be of practical nature, romantic, or festive. The groups are dominated by children or adults, just a place to lay out your picnic blanket might suffice or you require tables to sit on with BBQ facility. Obviously the demand on suitable beach picnic places differs greatly.
