Akaroa’s Canterbury’s oldest settlement.  And simply by wandering the charming ‘Rues’ it envelopes visitors in a coddling atmosphere of pioneering heritage and French romanticism.

For bowlers, there’s an added bonus - the Akaroa Bowling Club sits in the village on the corner of Rue Jolie and Rue Brittan.

Our green is open to everyone, to come and try their hand at bowling.  Green fees are payable for non-members.  We have both new and old-style bowls available for bowlers to use.

Club days are held on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday afternoons from 1.30pm.

Established back in 1906 the Akaroa Bowling Club is a cornerstone of the community.  It certainly has the WOW factor, and the club has a membership which knows they have something special. Where else can you try your hand at bowls at the edge of the sea... at the edge of the world!
