Wharariki Beach is a beach west of Cape Farewell, the northernmost point of the South Island of New Zealand. This is a beautiful wild coast with high rising dunes and island rock formations. A really fun day out! See birdlife and seals, sometimes you can see seal cubs playing in the shallow water. The north-facing sandy beach is accessible only via a 20-minute walking track from the end of Wharariki Road this is very exposed; so choose a day when there is minimal wind
