Local Services Mapping: Kaikoura
Kaikoura District is somewhat geographically isolated and has many of the characteristics associated with remote, rural communities. However, because it is a major tourism destination and is situated on State Highway 1, it has to cater for a significant number of visitors. Due to its location, decisions made at national level often have a direct impact upon the town.
