Oakura Beach

The day was beautiful today but the sea looks wild. The 'pyramid' in the photo is one of the Sugar Loaf Islands which are eroded stumps of an ancient volcanic crater. http://www.newzealand.com/int/feature/sugar-loaf-islands-and-paritutu-rock/


I love to see the lava rocks at low tide.

Oakura





The only place in Taranaki where you cannot see the mountain! OK, so it's another step to the right as you can barely see the snow on Mt. Taranaki, if you look closely enough!


This train car used to be a restaurant, but I can't find any information on it.
