Dave and I loved Barnacle Bills! We were pleasantly surprised by the breath taking views. This spot had some of the best views in all the spots we visited in New Zealand. From the front porch you can look to the left and see snow capped mountains, then look to the right and see a beautiful blue ocean. Dave and I did a 4 wheeling tour right around the corner which was a major highlight of our trip! We loved the restaurant The Thirsty Whale and the craft beer/coffee spot right across the corner from that. Would highly recommend this spot!
