If your trip to Clifton is all locked in but your itinerary is a little on the empty side, we can give you a few hints and tips.Stop by Wainui Falls. It's one attraction you'll find on most travelers' must-do lists. If you still have space on that schedule, Pohara Beach and Golden Bay Museum & Gallery will keep you occupied as well.

Locals will also probably point you in the direction of Richmond, 35 miles away. If you can only find time for one attraction here, make sure it's Richmond Mall. (But we're also big fans of Greenmeadows Park and World of Wearable Art and Collectable Cars.)
