So ask a native Kiwi (New Zealander) where French Pass is and they very well might not know. But leave it to us we found it! French Pass is a very small community with one accomodation (other than tent camping -shudder to think of!) out on the tip of the sounds. It is a 2 hour drive from the main highway on mostly gravel road that twists, turns and corkscrews around the Mountains until you get to the very end. We arrived there by 1130 am on Monday the 22nd and by 1200 we were be shuttled by boat to D'Urville Island. D'Urville Island is home to exactly 30 residents, but they have restaurant and bar! We spent 4 hours here having lunch and some beers and enjoying the beautiful sunshine!
