Photo: Southern Wairarapa Coastline North Island

The diminishing hues of the sunset seen from the Southern Wairarapa coastline on the North Island of New Zealand.

The Southern Wairarapa coastline near Cape Palliser Lighthouse on the North Island of New Zealand is a beautiful spot to watch the pastel colours of the sunset disappear behind the incoming clouds. The rugged coastline of Southern Wairarapa is one of the most scenic locations on the North Island.Huge rock formations protrude from the water's surface and when storms pass through Southern Wairarapa, the waves crash against the coastline. On calm nights such as this, the foamy whitewash molds around the edges of the rocky shores creating the ideal photo opportunity.A drive along this coast brings you to a colony of fur seals, and the Cape Palliser Lighthouse. If you are at any of these places and evening starts to approach, relax and enjoy the magnificent sunsets from the shores of Southern Wairarapa.
Southern Wairarapa on the North Island is about fifty kilometers southeast of the busy city of Wellington but actually driving there is about 100 kilometers. ... continue below the picture...
