Farewell Spit to Foxton Beach, New Zealand

The Wellington Harbour is a natural harbour which is really an extension of the Cook Strait. It is very pretty and very large covering 70 km². New Zealand's first lighthouse was erected on Pencarrow Head in 1858 at the entrance to the harbour. There is a 4 hour return walk to the lighthouses. Next trip? Select the photo below to see the harbour coastline to the south.
