Sea, Tea and the Strawberry Tree
Written By Rachel Wyrsch

Kaikoura is Meatworks and Mangamaunu and where you drink tea and more tea, right by the sea, sharing stories friends of years share. Tug on old woollens and wander the nearby town, eat cherry tomatoes on nearby mountains, drive country roads, and warm up with a beer at the Strawberry Tree at night.
It's where you camp in the company of long grasses and the sound of waves crashing over an infinity of pebbles. Where pinks, purples and oranges close enough to inhale make you feel you've woken in Oz; make you realise you, too, have what you've wanted all along.
