Another highlight is Kopinga Marae, the only Moriori marae in New Zealand.
Another day you’ll travel to Waitangi West and see a historic cottage built by Moravian Missionaries, and finally, you’ll stop by Splatter Rock and Hapupu Historic Reserve before enjoying relaxing free time for your final few days.
Join a day trip to Pitt Island and squeeze in some more fishing, or just put your feet up!
This is just small a taste of all that is offered on Merv’s Chatham Islands Tours.

In terms of temperature, Chatham Islands has an oceanic climate due to a narrow temperature range and relatively frequent rainfall. Its isolated position, a long way from any substantial mainland, gives the record temperature for main settlement Waitangi to be just 23.8 degrees Celsius.
The climate is cool, wet, and windy with average high temperatures between 15 and
20 degrees Celsius in summer, and between 5 and 10 degrees Celsius in July, the Southern Hemisphere winter.
Snow is extremely rare, being recorded near sea level in July 2015 after several decades.
