Greymouth is the largest town on the South Island's west coast. Situated at the mouth of the Grey River. Around the town, you'll find galleries specialising in pounamu, also known as NZ Jade or greenstone. These treasured gemstones are found around the region. Visit Shantytown, a replica of an 1880's gold town with 30 shops and buildings to explore - it shows life the way it used to be. You will find some of the best trout fishing in New Zealand at Lake Brunner. Wake up early to watch the morning mist creeping over the hills and across the stunning West Coast beach. Experience the stunning raw beauty that is Greymouth.
