Okains Bay is a one and a half hour drive from Christchurch. Turn off from SH75 at Hilltop past Little River. You will follow the sign: Eastern Bays, Tourist Drive.

This road is called the Summit Road. According to The Lonely Planet: "the absurdly beautiful drive around the edge of the original crater". The views are spectacular.

If you miss the Summit Road the next turn off to Okains Bay from State Highway 75 is past Duvauchelle.

Coming from Akaroa the turn off to Okains Bay is on State Highway 75 past Robinsons Bay.

We are on 32 Chorlton Road, the first road to the left past the museum and the shop.

The small shop in Okains Bay can provide you with basic supplies, such as milk, sugar etc. but we advise you to visit a supermarket in Christchurch or Akaroa to buy fresh ingredients.

Be welcome!
