Timaru is the second largest city in the Canterbury region of New Zealand. It's located about midway between Christchurch and Dunedin, and it's also a convenient stop over on the way to Mt Cook. We stayed in Timaru for 2 nights with the main intention of hoping to see little blue penguins (the world's smallest penguins) who have a colony at Caroline Bay.
We travelled to Timaru from Akaroa and our first stop after the 3 hour journey was to have some lunch. We were craving Indian cuisine and thankfully came across a Punjab Indian restaurant in Timaru's city centre that had friendly service and great food.

Address: 44 Stafford Street, Timaru 7910
Our accommodation in Timaru was a self-contained, very comfortable, well-equipped flat located only a short drive away from Caroline Bay.

We learnt from our friend @LanaTiare that you could see little blue penguins (kororā) in Timaru. The best month to see the little blue penguins in Timaru is apparently November though so we were pretty lucky to spot the two that we did at Marine Parade over at Caroline Bay. They return ashore a after a long day out in the sea (usually after it gets dark) so dress warmly and wait quietly and patiently on the footpath.
