点评:Incredible. I was really looking forward to seeing this beach because all of my research said it was the prettiest beach in New Zealand. So I arrived with sky-high expectations and amazingly, it exceeded them. But here is the key pro tip with this beach that I think most people miss when they come here. Most people visiting this beach I think focus mainly in the big rock formations in the middle of the beach. BUT that's not the best part of this beach. The key here is when you get to the beach you want to go to the far LEFT side of the beach. When you get to the far left side you will see a large rock formation that will not look like anything special. When you get to this large rock, walk to the other side of it and THEN you will be totally blown away!
Strange rock formations.....amazing tide pools....spectacular caves that IF you have arrived at low tide (most people don't bother to check the tides beforehand so they arrive at low tide) you can walk in one side and come out the other. Finally, after 10 days in New Zealand I found that otherwordly scenery that made me feel like I was on another planet. And it was all HIDDEN on the far LEFT side of the beach on the other side of this rock! But when you first hit the beach you can't see ANY of this this because this big rock is blocking your view. I looked at my friend and she was crying---that's how moved she was by this beach!
We flew 16 hours to get here and then drove 7 hours to see this beach and I can tell you it was literally worth coming all the way from Charleston, South Carolina in the US just to see this beach. It was that stunning and THAT special---as long as you walk to the far LEFT side of this beach on the other side of the rock!

翻译:太棒了!我一直很期待来这片海滩,因为我查到的资料都说它是新西兰最美的海滩。所以我带着极高的期望来到这里,结果它真的超出了我的预期。不过,关于这片海滩,我有个很重要的秘诀,我觉得很多人来这里都会忽略。大多数游客的注意力都集中在海滩中央的巨石上。但这并非这片海滩最精彩的部分。关键在于,当你到达海滩后,要走到最左边。你会看到一块看起来很普通的巨石。走到这块巨石后面,走到它的另一边,然后你就会彻底被震撼到!
奇特的岩石构造……令人惊叹的潮汐池……壮观的洞穴,如果你是在退潮时到达的(大多数人懒得提前查潮汐,所以都是在退潮时到的),你可以从洞穴的一侧进去,然后从另一侧出来。在新西兰待了十天后,我终于找到了那片宛如仙境般的美景,让我感觉仿佛置身于另一个星球。而这一切,竟然隐藏在海滩最左侧,那块巨石的另一侧!当你刚踏上沙滩时,却什么也看不到,因为这块巨石挡住了你的视线。我看着我的朋友,她竟然哭了——这片海滩深深打动了她!
我们飞了16个小时才到这里,然后又开了7个小时的车才看到这片海滩。我可以告诉你,为了这片海滩,从美国南卡罗来纳州的查尔斯顿一路赶来,绝对值得。它如此惊艳,如此特别——只要你走到海滩最左侧,穿过那块巨石就能看到!
