The deeply indented landscape of Te Wahipounamu National Park stretches along the southwest coast of New Zealand’s South Island. 15 dramatic fjords are protected within this UNESCO World Heritage site, including the spectacular Dusky Sound, Milford Sound and Doubtful Sound. The sheer cliffs and nutrient-rich waters of these fjords have been shaped by glacial erosion.

The complex landscape of Dusky Sound is only accessible by boat, making it a truly remote spectacle. Almost 5 miles across at its widest point and 25 miles long, this relatively untouched fjord is one of the most picturesque in New Zealand. It was originally named Dusky Bay by Captain Cook and soon became a popular harbour for merchant ships. Its shores were once the roaming ground of the now-extinct moa bird, while the waters were a favoured hunting ground for sealers in the 18th and 19th centuries.
These days, however, its diverse wildlife is much more treasured. Watch out for graceful dolphins and slinky seals as they swim through its mirror-like waters or scan the horizon for breaching humpback whales. The shores, shrubland and forests are also recognised as important breeding grounds for endangered birdlife so bring your binoculars to spot Fiordland Penguins, Yellowhead and New Zealand Kaka.
7 islands are scattered along the fjord, including the large, offshore nature reserve of Resolution Island that shelters its mouth. Get up close to their enchanting beauty with a kayaking tour or take to the skies with a scenic helicopter or seaplane flight to appreciate the awesome natural geography of the area as you soar between the clouds.
