The problem is not that no-one wants to visit them, but that they relied heavily on overseas visitors or tourism in general before the Covid-19 pandemic struck. Even with the domestic tourists they’ve welcomed since the nationwide lockdown ended, they’re still in dire straits.
Pay them a visit on your next break and you’ll be doing them a favour they’ll repay you for many times over in terms of the adventures they offer. Of course it helps that they are all offering some pretty exceptional deals.

The incident happened on State Highway 1, just north of the Otago town of Waikouaiti, about 2.50pm on Wednesday.
Acting Senior Sergeant Anthony Bond said strong winds pushed the caravan off the road and overturned it, destroying it.
The wind was so strong police were unable to clear the debris from the road. The cleanup would be carried out when the wind died down, Bond said.
