The Mediterranean Motel is facing the magnificent Kaikoura mountain range.

Across the road from the motel is a park with seating. The beach is approximately 250 metres stroll from the motel where a walking and bike riding track can be found.

The track winds its way along the beach passed the township, passing a couple of historical buildings all the way around to the seal colony at the end of the Kaikoura peninsula.

From there the track interconnects with the peninsula walking track where magnificent sweeping views of the mountains and the sea can be enjoyed.

All along the beach people can enjoy surf casting where Salmon, Rig,Cod and Kahawai to name a few species are caught.
