Greymouth and the district offer activities such as Shantytown (replica gold town), dolphin watching, eco-rafting, cave rafting, bush walks, 4 wheel biking, coastal and lake fishing, brewery tours, arts and crafts and scenic flights.

Greenstone, or jade, is another natural treasure found on the West Coast. It is crafted into jewellery and other artworks which can be bought at local outlets.
