Paparoa National Park i-SITE Visitor Centre.

Punakaiki is the gateway to the dramatic limestone country of the Paparoa National Park. It lies halfway between Greymouth and Westport on one of the most spectacular coastal highways in New Zealand.

Punakaiki is best known for its pancake rocks and blowholes, but it is also the centre for Paparoa National Park - 38,000 ha of varied landscape from mountain tops to sea level.
