Coastal Pacific BIG4 Member Benefit

Explore a scenic seaside from the comfort of our train!

There are plenty of reasons to catch the Coastal Pacific: firstly, it connects with our Interislander ferries at Picton, thereby connecting Wellington to Christchurch; secondly, it connects with the amazing coastal town of Kaikoura and the wine capital of New Zealand, Blenheim; thirdly, it skirts along the rugged coastline beneath the imposing Kaikoura mountain ranges and alongside the sparkling Pacific Ocean. It is an incredible journey - and a useful one too!

Picton to Christchurch takes approximately 5 hours - which is easily doable in a day. However, Blenheim makes a great first stop and is just an hour from Picton. Hop back aboard and the seaside town of Kaikoura is a couple of hours further down the track. Complete the trip with another two hours of incredible scenery on the journey to Christchurch to make an adventurous few days of idyllic travel.

With your BIG4 membership, you can take advantage of the Top 10 holiday parks located in Blenheim, Kaikoura and Christchurch. Then, from Christchurch, consider hopping aboard the Tranzalpine for even more adventure - this time through the Southern Alps - where the Top 10 Holiday Park in Greymouth awaits at the other end!
