Driving through New Zealand's South Island - Pancake Rocks.

Pancake Rocks & Blowholes at Punakaiki are iconic natural attractions located on the West Coast of New Zealand's South Island. These limestone formations, stacked like pancakes, were created over 30 million years from the accumulation of marine animal remains. The Dolomite Point Loop is a short and easy walking trail that takes visitors to see the unique rock formations and blowholes, where seawater shoots up like fountains during high tide. The surrounding views of the ocean and tropical rainforest add to the beauty and create a special atmosphere. Driving along the Great Coast Road from nearby towns is very convenient. This is a must-visit stop for nature lovers and photography enthusiasts.
