Today is day 28 day again and we wanna do something adventurous. We decided to depart from opotiki to a place called East Cape.
yesterday was sunset but now is sunrise. The adventure is worth it.
You gonna be patient to wait what is good .
3am depart from Opotiki to East Cape (3 hour driving)
The historic East Cape Lighthouse stands 154 metres above sea level on Otiki Hill, above East Cape, in the Eastland region of New Zealand.
The East Cape Lighthouse is accessed by a walking track of some 700 steps. The walk is definitely worth it for the views at the top!
A 22 kilometre, mostly unsealed no-exit road from Te Araroa takes you to the most Easterly point on mainland New Zealand. The road clings to the eastern coastline with constant stunning views.
East Cape Lighthouse History
The East Cape Lighthouse was initially built on East Island, a small offshore island of about 13 hectares. The island proved quite hazardous however, and in 1922 the lighthouse was relocated to the mainland.
Originally manned by three lighthouse keepers, by 1985 the East Cape Lighthouse was fully automated. Today the lighthouse is managed by Maritime New Zealand.
This is how I dress because midnight the weather is gone crazy, superb cold.
Really thanks God that We are safe to reach there and you can still see the moon behind the board.
Is 6.40am view. And we tooked 20 minutes to walk up to the hill. The journey is so tired and the place is so dark without any light and we got to prepare our own torch light.
I'm missing you.
With the awesome group of Friends
Say byebye to the sun and East Cape.
