-- About this video --

Today we are heading toward the Otago town of Oamaru! On the way there we have to stop by the famous Moeraki Boulders, right? Except... We reach the Moeraki Boulders at the wrong time of day. This is when NOT to visit the Moeraki Boulders in New Zealand. 

Nevertheless, we actually arrive in Oamaru at the perfect time of the year, just in time for the annual Victorian Fete in Oamaru! On the first day of the Victorian Fete is the Victorian Parade so we hit the streets of Oamaru to watch the Victorian Parade! It’s fair to say that Victorian Oamaru has a LOT of character!

So what do you think of the Moeraki Boulders at high tide? How about the Victorian Parade in Oamaru? Would you add these activities to your Oamaru travel itinerary? LUK in the comments!
