Dunedin Beach Holiday

Sit back and relax on the shoreline as you watch the sunlight sparkling across the water on your Dunedin holiday. If you're yearning for a memorable beach experience, a trip to Dunedin will be just the ticket. Chances are you've heard of St. Clair Beach (3 kilometres away). We recommend booking a hotel close by. However, loads of sightseers also go for Dunedin holiday deals that are closer to Brighton Beach or Tomahak Beach, two other popular nearby options.
