Are there sandflies in Dunedin?

They are frequently seen arriving from sea in the evening. Avoid approaching them and their nesting grounds as they are easily threatened. The Otago Peninsula is full of attractions. Victory Beach and Taiaroa Head are close by and well worth a visit.

How do I get to Lovers Leap Dunedin?

Getting to the Sandymount Track

Most people arrive at Sandymount by car. Either drive up Highcliff Road until you come to Sandymount Road or turn down Allans Beach road in Portobello and then turn right onto Hoopers Inlet road. Some of these are gravel roads — I'm pretty sure I lost a hubcap on one of them.
