Punakaiki · The West Coast & the glaciers · New Zealand
★★★★☆ View & landmark
No admission charge for anyone. Parking or transport may still cost.
FREE. Limestone weathered into stacked layers like pancakes, with blowholes that fire spray through them. THE BLOWHOLES ONLY PERFORM AROUND HIGH TIDE AND IN A WESTERLY SWELL - at low tide in calm weather they do nothing at all. Check the tide table. A 20-minute loop.
