Wellnessington is home to a range of nature and animal activities, from eco-sanctuaries to kiwifruit-spots. There are many near the center of the town. Maybe an old Tuatara up-close experience? All of these nature and animal adventures - and more - can be found in the Wellington area. Kapiti and Matiu and Matiu Sunes, the predator-free archipelago, offer immersed walks through the local scrub and nocturnal kiwis in the great outdoors.
