Roadside crayfish shop
Some people come to Kaikoura for the whale watching, others come for the crayfish. Kaikoura, which means ‘meal of crayfish’ in the Maori language, is famous for its delicious red crustaceans. Restaurants serve Crayfish Thermidor, Crayfish Mornay and fabulous platters of cold crayfish. Or you can simply buy a crayfish from a roadside shop and have an impromptu seaside picnic.
