On the South Island of New Zealand we drove to the Northern tip at Farewell Point where Capt. James Cook said farewell to these islands on his way to Australia. This beach is just amazing, with little seal pups playing in the rock pools at low tide and these amazing rocks offshore. Best time to photograph these rocks is when the tide is going out and along the beach to the West. Only a short 1km walk from the car park. #OnTheRoad](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6353185/d67ef308-b027-41d7-9ec6-ad7c3732a8b0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![Wharaiki Beach - beautiful ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6353185/ce8245a3-af9b-4f04-8617-3b87751648f1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![One of the most incredible sides to the northern tip of the South Island is how beaches and sand dunes quickly give way to lush green rolling hills - Wharariki Beach is definitely a part of our @airnzgrabaseat adventure we will return to.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6353185/0205b8bc-5510-408a-856e-c33d78366121.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ## Visit Wharariki Beach Activities --- --- ### Popular places to visit ![#LifeAtExpedia](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6112835/78941485-ac94-45b1-9629-382625bf6b25.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Farewell Spit 4.5/5(3 reviews) Why not spend a lazy afternoon at Farewell Spit during your trip to Farewell Spit?
