Stopped at Stingray Bay for a swim on the way back from the cove. Instead of swimming, I just waded around the shallows watching the beautiful Stingrays gliding around. Was a real treat, saw alot of people just turning up and taking a couple of photos then leave. Get in the water and see the rays!

I've driven past here so many times and never stopped, I'm so glad we finally did. There are 2 entrances, one is a 15 min walk and the other 1.5 hours - so make sure you get the right one. Beautiful river and springs, hopefully the sun ☀️ is shining when you visit to make the crystal clear water really glow.

New Zealand’s largest lake with stunningly crystal blue fresh water of Lake Taupo, home to some of the best trout fishing in the world.

We stopped off here en route from Rotorua to Napier and enjoyed a couple of hours relaxing with a nice lunch to boot. Taupo town is situated at the head of the beautiful lake of the same name. A giant crater formed following a volcanic eruption in the year CE180 and this is now the largest lake in New Zealand by size - Lake Te Anau is the largest by water volume. We enjoyed a lovely stroll around this chic town and then it was onto our ultimate destination of Napier

We drove from Raglan along the coast road south & came upon Manu Bay, a fantastic scenic location & a dream for surfers. Enormous waves, towering cliffs & appeared a million miles away from civilisation.

Very pretty lake with amazing trees, wildlife, pretty water lillies. A great spot for a walk or picnic. Plenty of parking. Short distance from the centre of Cambridge.
