Pelorus Bridge is the most beautiful swimming spot if you're ever in that part of the world. The bridge runs over the river which runs into the sound that Pelorus Jack was named after.

- lemming 6y agoThis is absolutely true. I'm lucky to have it 45 minutes down the road from where I live, we visit frequently. It's gorgeous. (Hi d_t_w!)
- d_t_w 6y agoEyoo!
- Intermernet 6y agoNote to the unwary: If you ever find yourself in that part of the world, be prepared for everything you see to be accurately describable as "the most beautiful". The entire south island of New Zealand is "the most beautiful"!
- mkl 6y agoHeh. It looks like ordinary NZ bush to me! I'm not sure I'd say the entire South Island though, as quite a bit of it is boring farmland. Here are the places in the article: https://www.google.com/maps/@-41.051886,173.738907,51935m/data=!3m1!1e3 https://www.google.com/maps/@-41.051886,173.738907,51935m/da... Pelorus Sound is in the middle and extends down to Havelock. French Pass is at the top. There's not nearly as much regular boat traffic through either anymore, as most inter-island traffic takes the big Interislander ferry which comes in to Picton (just south of map), and then there's a road to Nelson (over to the west).
