About Bluff, New Zealand

Bluff is New Zealand's southernmost town and a departure point for ferries to Stewart Island/Rakiura. Cruise ships occasionally use Bluff as an alternative or supplement to Port Chalmers (Dunedin), and it serves as a gateway to Invercargill and Fiordland. The town is famous for its oysters and the Bluff Oyster & Food Festival held annually in May.
