About
In this Heartland episode, Gary McCormick travels to New Zealand’s southernmost community outpost: the town of Oban on Stewart Island’s Half Moon Bay. His journey unfolds as a gently discursive ramble through time and geography, anchored by the island’s annual Festival of The Sea. The festival brings the tight-knit community together, featuring locals from all walks of life—fishermen, conservationists, and childcare workers among them. The marine mardi gras ends on a highlight with ‘Miss Catch of the Day,’ a spirited drag competition where the island’s rugged blokes swap oilskins for evening gowns.
