Another day… another farm tour with the Pelorus Mail boat. I just love doing tours with these guys and showing everyone around our historical woolshed.
This is a farm tour with a difference, Wilson Bay farm has been in the Foote family since 1881, and is located in one of the most isolated places in NewZealand.
The farm is only accessible by boat, it is off- Grid, and can be subjected to some of the harshest weather elements New Zealand has to throw at them.
The land is steep, rocky and rugged, and the views from the top of the hill some of the most magnificent in the world.
It would leave you wondering why anyone would live in such a place, and if they might be a bit crazy…. Probably!!
But loving life!!

The water looks amazing today, so clear and very inviting. The other day I saw the biggest stingray I have ever seen in all of the years living out here. Just hanging out waiting for the Pelorus mailboat tour group. Just another beautiful day in paradise!!
