These pictures were taken in and around Waiheke Island during the week of
April 18, 2005.
Waiheke
Island, about half an hour by ferry from Auckland, is a popular day trip
destination known for its gorgeous beaches. Here was my first look at
them. |
Another
view of the beach, from atop it :) This beach is the prettier of the two
main ones, but it is a fair distance from the town so I only went there
the one time. |

A
perspective shot of the beach. There really isn't that much to say about
it. It's a big sandy beach. |
These
next few are at the beach in town. The town is called Oneroa and is
fairly tiny, consisting of a few cafes that all close by suppertime,
some surf shops, a used bookstore and a visitor information centre. |
Inland
a bit, on the same beach. I befriended a local who took me walking among
these giant outcroppings right on the beach, some of which were caves. |
