Boulder Beach
New Zealand, New Zealand
Boulder Beach is a rugged, rocky stretch on New Zealand's Otago Peninsula along the Pacific Ocean, about 16 km east of central Dunedin by road, named for its boulder-strewn shores backed by steep cliffs.
Accessible via moderately challenging tracks like Highcliff, it's closed to visitors from November to February to protect nesting yellow-eyed penguins—one of their key habitats—along with frequent sightings of New Zealand fur seals and sea lions.
Surfers enjoy its consistent left- and right-hand waves, while hikers and occasional naturists appreciate the pristine isolation, dramatic scenery, and wildlife amid the peninsula's wild southern exposure.
