Learn more about Tarara

Venture to Catlins Lake and Jack's Blowhole—just two of the sights around Tarara.

The Purakaunui Falls are one of the most beautiful waterfalls in New Zealand outside the mountains. Down in the Catlins it's off a gravel road past Papatowai. It's a bit hard to find online or concretely on a map, but there are yellow street signs everywhere pointing you there, so just follow the yellow signs and you'll get there, then its a quick 20 minute walk down to the falls
