All At Sea

When you think of the beach, you probably think of blue skies, blue seas and waves lapping on long stretches of golden sand. Well, all that's alright I s'pose...

The Kaikoura coast looking northwards. Straight from a tourist brochure...

Moeraki Boulders, on the way back north to Christchurch. Freaky geology anyone?

Manuherikia Arm, Marlborough Sounds.

The Sounds are flooded valleys, with hundreds of hidden bays and inlets, framed by dark, bush-covered hills. One of my favourite places, rain or shine.

 

Ngakuta Bay, Marlborough Sounds.

Cook Strait. Sometimes one of the most violent stretches of water in the world, but thankfully not today.
