- Reveal New Zealand Ep 16 and it's a busy one in the South Island! On the West Coast is the Punakaiki Pancake Rocks, incredible black sand beaches, a seal colony and a tiny home in Tauranga Bay! We can't believe...⬇ More Below ⬇ See the tiny home here - geni.us/outthebay
Welcome back to the South Island of New Zealand! We're on the wild West Coast, well known for it's black sand beaches and rugged coast line. After sharing out cool little tiny house in Tauranga Bay (which you can see more of here ( geni.us/outthebay ) we're out to the seal colony at Cape Foulwind and on the way to the Punakaiki Pancake Rocks.
The Punakaiki Pancake Rocks are a crazy phenomenon believed to have occurred over the past 30 million years. They're one of those stock standard must-do things along the West Coast of New Zealand that has been repeated to us more than once (ok, 20+ times) so we didn't really have the highest expectations. The fact they'd be along an amazing black sand beach was a given, but having low expectations was maybe a good thing because they were awesome and the setup there was really well done.
Wrapping the day up at Hokitika, the weather put some spoils on the evening plans, but even that couldn't stop us taking a walk in the rain to see the black sand beach there as well.
A cool area of New Zealand! 🤣

#RevealNZ #NewZealand
"Far over the misty mountains cold" is the song that came up to your mind.
Thats the one! Haha won't be singing that again anytime soon 😂
Love Stacy's surprised face! And Pies! I love pies. New Zealand is super RV friendly and that makes me happy. Living vicariously through your videos! Safe travels cheers!
😂 I can't hide my feelings at all, my face says it all!
You guys are bloody lovely. Just had a shit day, missing my home of NZ. I'm stuck in the UK.We're totally screwed You are blessed. God bless Aotearoa. And the ABs just done the Aussies. Choice!
Thanks so much David! Sounds like the UK is having a tough time at the moment, hang in there! At least the ABs had a good game!
The seals!!! I’m obsessed with animals and when I saw them I died, they’re so cute, and I’d definitely have the same reaction and Stacey 😂😂
Very awesome
Oh I love the west coast, there is something magical about the place. Great video guys 📽📽📽
Couldn't agree more, such an amazing place. Thank you 😁
Stacey's "wow" priceless.
WOOOW & AMAAAZZZING always just fall out when I'm super happy 😂
I just can't get over how adorable those seal pups are 😍
Arent they cute! SO wish we could've got a little bit closer!
Wow... Love to see your vlog.. ❤️❤️
Thank you!
Man I’m loving your guys content of New Zealand soo beautiful
Beautiful west coast. Must visit.
Definitely!
Looking forward to hearing your first album!😉
Another great peep at your beautiful country guys. Really loving this series!
Hahaha 2020 has been bad enough, why not drop a terrible album 😂 Thanks so much, happy you're enjoying the series!
Love this series its beautiful. Thanks so much. Maybe some day
Aw thank you so much. Fingers crossed for some day!
Great video Those pancake rocks are stunning . Looking forward to your next video
Take care
Arent they cool, we're so glad we stopped off to see the Pancake Rocks! Hope you enjoy the next video :)
Looks so pretty! This is deff a bucket list place!!!
Definitely! Such an awesome place :)
Well done Daneger and Stacey...so nice to vicariously experience NZ with you.
Happy you're coming along on the journey with us :)
Just found your channel a week ago its awesome 👌 love your trip I love the south
So happy you found us!
You guys are the best!!! So fun seeing your adventures
You're the best!
Awesome😊
Thank you!
Awesome video! Loved all the unplanned expressions and unknown sites to see. Made for a very impromptu VLOG which are often the best. How terrific to see all the various terrain and climates of NZ. Wonderfully done my friends!
Thanks Jim! Definitely a very spontaneous few days, so nice to just go with the flow and see where the wind takes us.
Great video as usual. What a wild and beautiful coast.
Thank you, the coastline is epic!
What a terrific find with this tiny home. Beer's included WIN:)
16 episodes in and honestly the NZ government tourist officials need to hire you two. Even with cloudy days there's stunning vista's everywhere. We feel like fools for not see more when were there.
Too bad you couldn't drone over those pancake rocks and water.
Thanks for another wonderful share,
Best wishes, James and Kim
Absolute win with the beersies, the hosts were so kind leaving them for us. Aw you're too kind thank you!
The pancake rock formations look so unusual and impressive! You guys find such lovely hidden gems to share with us! Keep up the great work 😃
Aren't they cool! We were so impressed. Thank you!
Love the West Coast. Got family in Paringa, nothing better than going on a jet boat adventure up the Paringa River on a good day. You're not wrong about St. Anaud either, gem of a spot.
Hey guys, hope you both are safe and doing great... Once again it's all so eye catchy and magical.. Nice vlog and great work
We are great thank you, hope you are too!
Thank you again, for showing and sharing your beautiful country!
It’s great escapism as here in the UK we’re heading into another lockdown 🤦🏼♀️🇬🇧
So sorry to hear you're going into another lockdown! We'll be putting out lots of videos to keep you entertained 😁
You are bringing back some great memories. Did the West Coast in reverse (from Queenstown to Nelson) back in 2004(ish) with some Aussie friends and we had a wonderful time. Saw Fox glacier by foot from the look out and then by helicopter which I absolutely recommend as that perspective is just stunning. Sad to see how much our glaciers have receded since then but from your expression Stacey, they still pack a punch! Safe travels 👍🏽😊
We do the Fox Glacier Heli Hike in the next video, honestly the coolest experience ever! Sounds like you had a great trip!
Nice stuff! Cheers!
Thank you!
16:00 haha made me crack up a lil, looking forward to more uploads though! I watched this whole series yesterday and this morning
Probably gonna give myself a concussion by the end of this trip I've bumped my head so many times 😂
Cool
Thanks!
Hokitika Gorge is Beautiful, Reefton on the West Coast of the South Island was the first place in New Zealand to get Electricity, Lake Matheson between Franz Joseph Glacier and Fox Glacier has a beautiful reflection in the Water in Winter from the Mountains in the background
Lake Matheson was pouring with rain for us haha, such a shame!
Pretty... Cool... :)
Thanks so much!
I did a very identical trip around South Island a few months ago, reliving it through your videos. =)
No doubt your trip was aaaaaaamazing! We absolutely loved ours :)
At Charleston if you take a little detour off down to the Charleston Harbour you can see where ships sailed into the bay, which has a rock in the middle of it. quite neat
Ohhh gutted we missed this! Sounds cool
Awesome, awesome, and some more awesome! Really really can't wait to get there. Please keep your fingers crossed that they open a border exemption for teachers really soon so we can stop existing in limbo and start actually living!
Fingers are crossed for you!
@@DanegerAndStacey Thanks. Looking pretty doom and gloom at the mo.. feels like we never going to be able to call NZ home and live the life we have dreamed of for so long! Over 200 applications rejected so far... yay...so good for the confidence level... majority saying "due to Covid" though which at least makes me feel a little less useless". Guess I should not be applying when I know there is no exemption for me but positions commence in Feb, circumstances could change tomorrow and there is no harm in being hopeful... or is there..😳😭? I promise I would not run away from quarantine or complain lol. 🙈 Hope u guys are all good!
The Nelson Lakes National Park is worth a vlog on its own,and a stayover at St.Arnaud is a must,as youre just on the boundaries of Tasman and Marlborough districts.Had a quick stopover earlier this year,and its a definite return trip to stay longer and explore more,maybe take the backroad back to one of NZs oldest town - Wakefield.
Yeah we wish we had more time to stay longer! Will have to go back sometime :)
Amazing once again! Those pancake rocks looks like such a cool rock formation! I want to pour syrup on them! As for the seals, there are many in my home of the California Coast, USA. Hopefully one day you guys can do a USA series.
Haha we wanted to pour syrup on them too! SOLD, we're coming to cali once it's safe to so we can see the seals!
Fab as always. My first NZ tour was North Island in 2016 in Traveller’s Autobahn Campervan. West Coast, Rotorua local waterfall dip, and the Avocado area farms were the best. My teenagers and I are hopeful to relo on work Visa soon. Cheers.
Sounds like you had an amazing time. Did you get to the South Island as well?
@@DanegerAndStacey No not yet. Looking forward for sure. Truly enjoy your videos 😄.
@@DanegerAndStacey no only north island in 2016.
I think if I had to describe NZ in just one line, I'd say - it's just casually beautiful
That's the perfect way to describe it :)
Dane sings 🎵 "in the misty eye" 🎵 Stacey's face is all 😲... Dane's like "Lets leave" meanwhile I'm killing myself laughing!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I adore your sense of humour. Those pancake rocks were stunning and the gorge and overhang were epic! Hope you guys didn't open that bottle of pop any time soon after hurling it across the campervan! 👍
Haha Dane singing definitely caught me off guard! Gotta have a laugh! The pancake rocks were so amazing!!
Now.never knew new Zealand was this beautiful
Looks like you're going to have to visit someday!
@@DanegerAndStacey definitely
Happy Halloween
oh man you making me homesick for my whanau xoxo
Aww sorryyyy ❤️ sending loads of Kiwi love your way!
😍😍
Good stuff. You didn't get the blowhole activity? Presumably because it was low tide. In which case Truman Track just down the road is the place to see instead or as well.
Sadly we were there during the wrong time for the blowhole. We'll just have to go back someday!
4:29 No surprises that Stacey loves wearing a portable doona in that weather... ☺
8:07 Cookie looked underwhelming, the pie (guessing beef?) looked noice & flakey... ♥
Seriously the best jacket ever! Don't judge a book by it's cover, that cookie was deeeeeeeeeelish! Yup steak and cheese, so good!
loved the video guyss!😍Btw how do you guys record the voice overs? at home or? I am asking because the sound quality is really good!
I think they have a really good mic.
Oh thank you! We do record them at home, we use a Rode USB Mini microphone (It's honestly not the best) Dane wishes he paid a little more and got a Yetti Mic instead - we have to be really careful not to get too close and make that popping noise.
You should have done the glow worms caves when you stopped for the pie! I've been hoping you guys would go to one of them this whole series! The pancake rocks looked very cool, and I love the walkways/bridges!
Our priority was definitely the pie 😂 They're quite hard to film in low light and the most famous one (Waitomo) doesnt allow filming. Hopefully we can tick this off one day for you :)
@@DanegerAndStacey well that's perfectly understandable (focus on pie), because New Zealand's pies basically look worth coming for just them alone! I wondered if the filming in the caves was an issue. Do they allow photography (non-flash)? Loving your vlog series even without the glowworms!
@@DanegerAndStacey Waitomo may be the most famous one... but which one in your opinions is the nicest glow worm cave? Is the Waitomo the deep underground one?
just wondering what your total cost was for the hire,fuel,campsites as I am thinking of doing this trip too. Thanks
PEEEEPSIIII my favoriiite!
Loooove pepsi max!
@@DanegerAndStacey did you tried Lime or Mango Pepsi? I looove them!
Try Ross Beach Top 10 Camping park next time. It is fantastic. The local bar/hotel is amazing (Historic Empire Hotel )
That's where we were planning to stay but ended up in Hokitika instead :)
Hey guys, lovely video as always. Quick Qs: Do you tone down the Saturation in all your videos by choice? Hugs from a RUclipsr in India.
We don't usually tone down the saturation :) Just depends on the lighting etc!
Epic scenery, but no Pizza?? OMG :))
I KNOW! Mad regrets haha 🍕
Hi from Dublin! Did you say how much was the Mobil home hire? Thanks!
Hi! Not sure if you've seen it, but we did a full wrap up video with all the costs (can't remember the exact amount off the top of my head sorry)
Hahahahaha l could be wrong but that room looks like unit 7 at the Rainforest retreat. The blue nite lite in the bathroom is a nice touch.
I think we did stay in number 7! Good spotting!
How much would such a luxury place to stay set one back?
Really looks awesome. How incredible - able to listen to music in the shower!!!
So, you guys are pretty decked out for winter...I'm curious, how cold is it usually in New Zealand? Because us Canadians tend to look like that when it hits -1°degrees or so
west coast 9-12degsC in winter, not cold
We really feel the cold because we've lived in warm climates for the last 3+ years. We did hit the negatives in the early morning but generally it was below 10 degrees on this trip (middle of winter)
Hey peeps, all of a sudden yours and a few others videos won’t play on the RUclips TV app in 1080p. 720p only. Fine on the phone. Any idea?
That's so weird! No idea but we'll look into it, thanks for letting us know.
Shame you visited the pancake rocks at low tide. At high tide, particularly with a heavy surf, the sea vents up through holes in the rocks and sprays up geyser-like in assorted spots.
Yeah we were on a mission that day so didnt get there in time to see the blow hole sadly! Next time 😊
Missing NZ
Aww ❤️
Pancake Rocks is the only place I have ever seen a real Kiwi in the wild. But that was over half a century ago.
No way!! That must've been amazing to see!
me watching this and seeing my friends house in the back in Hoki ahahahaha
NO WAY 😂 Far out NZ is so small isnt it!
And now, Dan to the mice for his karaoke song- 2 seconds in it "♪.." i am fine!Thank you! ....
Haha Dane loves a good sing song
@@DanegerAndStacey but it was too short!
Wow guys amazing video and I can’t wait for the next one
Can I ask over in NZ is there lots of sand flys that bite? As I enjoy wearing shorts in the cold “I know I’m a crazy Aussie lol” but my brother said when your in NZ you don’t need to worry about shorts as it’s not a hot place like Aus NZ is more like a cool place.
Yes we have sandflies there.some are huge.i did hear that u can take one of the vitamin B tablets and they dont like it.ofcourse u have to overdose on it so its throughout the body to the skin.just cant remember which vit.b it is
Honestly we were expecting it to be A LOT worse but maybe because it was the middle of winter they weren't as bad? When we went to Milford Sound in the summer we were eaten alive but if you have a bug spray with deet they will leave you alone and you can enjoy time in your shorts!
Kind of expect 30 million year old rocks to be a bit wrinkly
😂 Best call ever! So true
Nice Adidas 👟 👟
Why thank you!
hi where are you guys from
New Zealand!
So is this the wild wild west of Will Smith? :P
Great song!
first!
Woohoo congrats!! So speedy!
3rd 😬😅🤷🏼♀️
Ooh bronze medal for yooooou! Let's hope its gold next time 😋
Now we all know how to abduct Stacey- Animals! Fluffy animals! ♥♥
Haha true! I love animals :)
Ahaha males can grow up to 200 kilometers
Sounds like a long story to me unlike the tall stories i usually hear hehe
@@ianbell4527 hahaha love it
@@ianbell4527 😂😂😂
come on who the f unliked this video
There's always a few 🙄 Cant please everyone I guess!
