Discover Dunedin. Fly direct from the Gold Coast with Jetstar. It’s closer than you think
Just 3.5 hours from the Gold Coast, Dunedin is closer than you think and packed with experiences you won’t find anywhere else.
Set on New Zealand’s spectacular southeast coast, this vibrant southern city is known for its rich heritage, dramatic landscapes, and one-of-a-kind wildlife encounters. From the turreted towers of Larnach Castle—New Zealand’s only castle—to the rugged beauty of the Otago Peninsula, Dunedin delivers memorable moments at every turn. It’s also the Wildlife Capital of New Zealand, where you can spot rare yellow-eyed penguins, sea lions, and the world’s only mainland royal albatross colony, all within easy reach of the city.
Dunedin’s compact, walkable centre is full of character, with beautifully preserved Victorian and Edwardian architecture alongside a thriving café, restaurant, and craft beer scene. Local favourites like Emerson’s Brewery highlight the region’s reputation for great food and drink, served with genuine southern hospitality.
With a rental car, you’re free to explore beyond the city, discovering scenic coastal drives, hidden beaches, and more of the lower South Island at your own pace.
Whether you’re after nature, culture, or a relaxed escape, Dunedin delivers big experiences without the long-haul travel.
Go wherever the road leads with a 5-day rental car from Hertz, picked up right at Dunedin Airport. Seamless car rental for all your “let’s go” moments. 
Step into history at New Zealand’s only castle, where stunning architecture meets sweeping views over the Otago Peninsula.
Stay in the heart of the city at Scenic Hotel Southern Cross, your base for five nights of comfort, heritage, and southern hospitality.
Get a liquid education at Dunedin’s iconic craft brewery. Founded in 1992, Emerson’s is a local institution, known for its vibrant atmosphere, outdoor beer garden, and a line-up of great craft beer and food to match.
