Cathedral Cove 🪨

Thank the heavens above, the rain has stopped!

You are only able to dig for the hot spring water at low tide, which happened to be at 6am today. Thankfully, you have 2 hours each side, so we had some time to come round before heading off. There were people up and at it much earlier than us as there were already beautifully dug out holes of hot water for us to bathe our feet!

After we spent some time amazed by there being boiling hot water at the beach we walked back to the van and made our way to Cathedral Cove. It was a short but steep walk down, but we made it to the cove at a slow and steady rate. It was absolutely beautiful and so worth waiting the extra day!

We had planned on going to a waterfall as well today, but it would have added on another hour onto our already 4/5 hour drive, so we gave it a miss.

After a looooong journey, we made it to Whangārei, where we parked up and were soon asleep!Leia mais
