When I was there, with wife and one daughter, there were at least three others. And a seal, deep in the first cave you went into, scared the life out of us when it barked in the dark. I've beach memories from around the world but that afternoon shines out as the most magical.

Especially when you sit on a fault boundary and see tightly twisted quartz strata in river rocks. Like on the west coast at Rainbow Falls (?). And many other places around geologically wonderful Aotearoa :)

I have spent many enjoyable days surfcasting from those rocks. Fantastic schnapper fishing. Scramble onto the rocks at low tide and fish until the tide recedes again. Holding the fish just out from the lower ledges until the right wave comes along and then surf them in to land at your feet.

This area is amazingly wild. I love the pebbles found here. Beautifully rounded. Lots of quartz mixed with other rock types. Different colours. Did these stones come from the "peneplane"? Very ancient. it's like going back in time. You'd expect to see a Pterodactyl or 2 screeching in the sky above . I went into one of those sea caves & didn't notice the fur seal. Got a hell of a fright! Magic spot.

Hi 'Out There', I had the same 'surprise' in that cave. As an old caver I just have to investigate how far a cave goes, I have come across many different obstacles underground; flat out squeezes, rock falls, sumps, pitches, but never before angry seals!! Regards Paul.

@@Lex-Hawthorn Yes, I found it on Google Maps when I first watched this video. True: techically my remark is not exactly EXACTLY correct. On the day I got there (travelling with a theatre troop), I think our minds were less on geology and more about finding a quiet place to smoke some hooch.

So much more to see and explore in the Golden Bay area... There's Rawhiti cave, Pupu springs, Farewell Spit, Wainui Falls, Ngarua Caves (with Moa bones), Abel Tasman National park and heaps more. My favorite part of NZ... Hope I'll be able to visit it again some day in the future (after the revolution and the fall of w.e.f. fascisme/apartheid/censorship/propaganda and the evil and corrupt government).. I'm so glad I visited NZ 10 times before the dictators started theire war against free humanity.. Stay strong Kiwi's ! Fight for your rights and freedom. and NEVER EVER BELIEVE the media (or the government) ;)

I lived in Puponga as a child, this was one of our playgrounds, i've been in all the caves in that area. Shame you didn't show all the sand dunes as well. And if the tide is right, you can literally run around in the shallows, standing on and stunning herrings, to pick up afterwards for food or bait. Miss a lot of places out in the Bay area. BTW did you see 'old man rock' on your way over there?
