New Zealand Sterling Falls, Milford Sound!

Milford’s second-highest waterfall. Best to reach by boat (Booked Tour) or kajak.

Photography Tips

You shoot from a boat, so depending on the weather, you shoot freehand, cause there are a lot of people around you.

Don´t get me wrong, but you need to be here in rainy weather. Check the weather forecast every day. The best moment for going on a cruise is just after a heavy storm. All waterfalls will be completely full and running down the walls. After a few hours, the magic is gone. That's why it is so important to wait for the perfect moody weather.

Travel Information

You can use the free parking near the small airport or the parking space in front of the visitor center, which is closer to the spot. It is up to you if you want to walk for around 15 minutes or pay a high amount of money as a fee.

The page "bookme" offers really good prices with lots of deals. Book it here, not directly with the cruise companies in the visitor centre.
