The Te Hoiere/Pelorus River at Pelorus Bridge is one of the most popular river swimming sites in the region. A campground and café with the shop are located nearby. There are also a number of easy walks that provide an opportunity to explore the surrounding native bush. Over 90% of the catchment remains in native vegetation, but there are some farms upstream of the sampling site.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is essential right now. Follow the advice of the health experts. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Heading to the beach should only be considered an option if social distancing practices can be followed. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter the efforts to curb the virus’ spread.
