Hokitika New Zealand

This sweet seaside town has a glint in its eye: indigenous pounamu (greenstone), carved and buffed to a shine by a thriving community of local artists. Shopping for greenstone, glassware, textiles and other home-grown crafts inspires droves of visitors to dawdle along Hokitika's streets, which are dotted with grand buildings from its 1860s gold-rush days. Radiant sunsets and a glowworm dell add extra sparkle to this coastal idyll, though many visitors prefer to work up a sweat: Hokitika accesses the West Coast Wilderness Trail as well as view-laden tramps at Lakes Kaniere and Mahinapua.
