This is the lighthouse at Cape Reinga, at the tip of North New Zealand. The Pacific Ocean meets the Tasman Sea just below resulting in some strange waves. The Maoris believe that peoples spirits head here after they die. You can just see the 3 Kings Islands in the background where the spirits travel to next before beginning their ascent...
A beautiful day and a great trip, particularly the sandboarding. We also visited one of the forests with the massive Kauri trees.
