"Tucked away in the south-east corner of the South Island, the Catlins Coast - known also simply as 'The Catlins' - is a region high in scenic and natural values and low in population. There is a 'heartland' quality to the region. [...] There is nothing like the Catlins anywhere else on the eastern seaboard of the south Island. It is a touch of South Westland out east - rugged. forested, moist, and not big on towns or tarseal." From Neville Peat: The Catlins And The Southern Scenic Route, page 7.
