Whitianga

After a brief stop at Goat island for more snorkeling and another over-nighter at George and Rosie’s place we headed East towards Whitianga at the end of the Thames to Corramandel scenic drive. Cars crawl around this section of road because everyone is staring gobsmacked at the amazing views. Stopping off for a walk to Cathedral Cove we ended our day on hot water beach, an unusual stretch of sand sitting on top of a thermal spring. At low tide we turned up and helped dig a pool which filled with warm, to boiling hot water. As you can see from the photos some spots were far hotter than others!

Oooooooo! the scenery & the photography is stunning!I love that single rock natural sculpture, if that were in the US they’d carve a presidents head into it? Mark (no-mates!)looks like he’s sitting on a big fish in that cave & those natural jacuzzi’s look wonderful. x

Nice picture of Mark sitting cross legged in the pool, but what is that little pink thing next to his left hand?
