Study abroad in Nelson

Nelson is a little haven at the north of the South Island. The city enjoys subtropical weather all year long and is surrounded by an extraordinary natural environment. Though small it’s a lively and animated place with a main street bordered with pubs, restaurants and shops. With the harbor and the long sandy beach, the waterfront is a particularly agreeable area to stroll. New Zealand counts many reservations but Abel Tasman National Park is one of the nicest in the country ; it can only be visited by foot or by kayak. The central location of Nelson in the country is ideal, as a result one can easily visit the North Island using the ferry that leaves from nearby Picton harbor several times a day. The crossing offers you magnificent sceneries and allows you to reach the capital city, Wellington, in only three hours.
