There are many amazing places to go that are located within and very close to Wynyard.

• Table Cape Tulip Farm and Lighthouse - A picturesque drive around Table Cape and up the Tulip Farm and Lighthouse is a great way to spend an afternoon. The Tulip Farm is best in early spring, around the time of the tulip festival, when the flowers are on full bloom. The lighthouse tour is also informative and gives stunning views of the ocean and surrounding coastline.
