💙 Te Waikoropupu Springs in Golden Bay - New Zealand's Biggest Gap Year - Guide to New Zealand

[@NZPocketGuide]

Sorry about our weird audio in this video - one of the troubles of recording on-the-go. So what do you think of Pupu Springs? Are you adding it to your NZ bucket list? Let us know!

63 meters! Over 200 feet! Wow!!

Quite epic isn't it?!

Thank you for your video. I grew up in Nelson and used to holiday in Golden Bay. i havent been home in 23 years. Its silly that they now enforce a no touching the water rule. There's cow paddocks not that far away, and they used to let people dive there.

Glad you enjoyed it! That's an interesting fact, thanks for sharing!

We have almost the same collection of Antics plush animals by the end of our trip as you guys. The blue penguin puppet, the big kiwi, the hector dolphin...

Hey Sean, glad to see that we are not the only crazies collecting plushies! It makes for the best kind of souvenirs!

I'd almost forgotten about the springs! I haven't been there since the late 1970s (now I am showing my age). But backpacker adventures aren't just for younger people, us older people love travelling too! I want to go back to Golden Bay, it's a great place!

[@NZPocketGuide]

It really is and there's so much to see and do there! We have a lot more videos to come on Golden Bay :)
