Packing tips for Wellington

Pack layers

While New Zealand’s capital is situated in the country’s North Island - which is traditionally warmer - it’s worth packing a few extra layers when you book flights from Hamilton Airport (HLZ) to Wellington. The weather can still be a little chilly and windy at any time of the year.

A waterproof jacket

On average, February has the least amount of rain - approximately 5 days - while June, July and August get up to 10 days worth of it. To be on the safe side, it’s worth packing a waterproof jacket so that a few downpours do not interfere with your plans.

Comfortable footwear

Wellington has several popular walking trails and hiking routes including the Mount Victoria loop and Pencarrow Head Lighthouse Trail. If you plan to do any of them it’s worth packing comfortable footwear or hiking boots.
