Some weeks ago I did this coastal walk from Long Bay all the way to Okura River which is about three hour return walk but for me it took about 4,5 hours since I stopped quite a lot to take pictures and just enjoy the views. The walk started from the Long Bay beach which is less than 5 min walk from our home. Which is pretty awesome!
I had read online that the regional park (and the beach) is really popular among the tourists. There's over a million visitors a year and it gets really busy at the beach in summer time. So when I started the walk, it didn't seem that impressive so I was wondering why are so many people coming here. But gotta say, later on the views got so much better! There were such a beautiful bays, hills and cliffs along the walk. The reason why I wanted to come to New Zealand was to see all the amazing landscapes and I feel like this was the first glimpse of them! If I was so impressed about just this park, I don't even wanna think about how amazed I will be when I travel around.
As you can see from the pictures, the weather changed all the time during the day. And it's like that almost every day; at first it can rain, then 5 minutes later it's all blue skies and then again pouring rain.
More pics coming later on. :)
