French Pass

French Pass separates D'Urville Island from the mainland coast of Pelorus Sound and
has the fastest tidal flow in New Zealand.
While doing research, I found this article from 1888.

Very beautiful aerial view! This is an exceptional place, filled with the benevolent memory of Pelorus Jack! Thank you for sharing this beautiful story, Betty!

Interesting text added about the dolphin. Would be hard to maneuver with the tide here

I read the information on the link, looks like a very rugged part of NZ.
