Cape Foulwind has a signposted trail that in 15 minutes from the car park takes you to a seal colony. The latter houses nearly two hundred individuals who have been observed from the cliff. By continuing the path (1 hour walk) you also reach the lighthouse overlooking Tauranga Bay. On the road or even on the parking lot, with a little luck, the hikers may encounter a weka, a bird unable to fly.

De nombreux phoques ont élu domicile sur les falaises du Cape Foulwind. On peut très bien les observer depuis les points de vue surplombant leur "spot". Le parcours est jalonné de panneaux explicatifs et de jumelles gratuites pour observer les phoques et les petits pingouins bleus présents à certaines périodes de l'année.

jolie petite randonnée, plusieurs colonies de phoques peuvent être vues. Des jumelles gratuites sont présentes à des endroits stratégiques, parfait ! Nous avons aussi vu des weka sur le chemin.
