Nelson
might have the highest sunshine hours in New Zealand, but there is so much more
to this area than beautiful weather!
This
seaside town is home to the Nelson English Centre. Nelson has a college town
feel, complete with tree-lined streets and a convenient town centre with cafes
and restaurants. Nelson residents love chatting with visitors, so you can
practise your English while planning what to do with your time outside of the
classroom.
With
three National Parks within 90 minutes of the city, Nelson gets a lot of
international visitors. There are long golden beaches, forests and
mountains. You can go walking, hiking on some world famous tracks, biking, or
kayaking.
At
Able Tasman National Park you’ll feel like you’re in paradise and can even swim
with the seals. In the winter time you’ve also got great options and can
go skiing or snowboarding at The Rainbow Ski Area. Take a look at some of the
stunning pictures online and imagine all the places you’ll visit while you
study English in Nelson!

Museum shows just how creative New Zealanders are.

offers the perfect mix of arts, culture and nature. At Nelson English
Centre you can experience all that Nelson has to offer while mastering your
