Picture that everyone takes!
On the 17th we left Colville and headed to Whitianga, which is a favorite holiday spot for Kiwis. Once arriving we relaxed at our hostel the Cats Pyjamas. The next day we headed out to Cathedral Cove. After a 45 min drive to the parking lot it was a 35 min walk to Cathedral Cove. Along the way we stopped at Gem Bay in hopes to do some snorkeling but the water was to rough and murky to see anything. And the fact that we got covered in fish eggs was not a major selling point either. So we continued onto Cathedral Cove, and once there we set up shop to do some sun tanning. But it was more like sun burning, after not seeing sun for 5 yrs skin tends to burn to a nice pink colour. It was a really nice beach though. Its main selling point is the rocks that have been cut away from the cliffs and are being worn away by the ocean. They make for some great pictures.
