What's the point?

This afternoon we found a nice walk back at Opito Bay. It was quite a climb to begin with, up steps that those with longer legs found easier! The view from the end of the point was well worth the walk, though! Here's a video of the panoramic view:


Views from the point go almost out to Cape Brett (Hole in the Rock) and round to Russell. Over one of the nearby hills is the Waitangi Treaty Ground and beyond it, Paihia.




On the way back we walked down to a "beach" where some locals were fishing - not a sandy beach and given the size of the steps and the gradients involved, taking a kayak would be the easier way of getting there!


All this, just 15 minutes from our door... and not bad weather for Autumn, either!
