Cape Reinga, located at the northern end of the North Island of New Zealand. The name of the cape comes from the M?ori word ‘Reinga’, meaning the ‘Underworld’. Cape Reinga is generally considered the separation marker between the Tasman Sea to the west and the Pacific Ocean to the east. From the lighthouse it is possible to watch the tidal race, as the two seas clash to create unsettled waters just off the coast. It’s April here and the climate is cool and windy. A beautiful peaceful place to come and visit. Very scenic with sand dunes a bit south and a 90 mile beach which you can drive on.
