Upper Viewing Platform

Trip Stop: 
Narrative: 

The viewing platforms are a photographer's paradise. From the Upper Platform we got a "birds-eye" view of the main nesting area on top of the cliff, with thousands of gannets arranged in their perfect grid pattern. From here, we also get the best view of the two rock stacks out at sea (Motutara and Oaia Islands) which are also covered in birds. Lots of opportunity to photograph birds in flight.
