d36***08Melaleuca Rock, a simple and intuitive name, a unique attraction on the West Coast. The scenery is spectacular. Pieces of huge rocks shaped like thousand-layer pancakes bulge into the sea from the cliffs, or they may rise to the sky, or connect into one piece, with magnificent momentum. Stop and watch ~ the sea breeze, the waves, and the sound of birds; move to the scene ~ supernatural craftsmanship, colorful, impressed by the beauty and power of nature. Comprehensive facilities. The trails, viewing platforms, and signs in the scenic area are very scientific and comprehensive. After entering the scenic spot, follow the trail and make a clockwise circle to see the whole scenic spot completely without taking any wronged roads; standing on the viewing platform, the most spectacular scenery is right in front of your eyes; follow the signs of the signs , It can not only increase knowledge, but also take evocative photos.

Hiking

_We***52There is a free viewing platform for fur sea lions, the habitat is under the stage, and it takes an hour to walk from the lighthouse to the direction of the trail, but only 15 minutes from the sea lion habitat is very worth seeing.

dwj-Punakaiki i-site is just across from the entrance of Melaleuca Rock Geopark. The tourist information point has a parking lot. You can also park on both sides of the road. There is a coffee shop and public toilets nearby. I usually visit it before and after entering the geopark. I won’t take pictures of tourist information spots. The photo is from the park opposite i-site.
