Moeraki Boulders New Zealand ポストカード

The Moeraki Boulders are a collection of unusually large, spherical rocks scattered along Koekohe Beach on the Otago coast. These ancient geological formations were created millions of years ago on the seafloor and have been exposed by coastal erosion. Some boulders are over two meters in diameter and weigh several tons, with many featuring cracked surfaces that resemble turtle shells. They are a popular destination for photographers, especially at sunrise when the soft light hits the smooth, wet stone against the backdrop of the Pacific Ocean.
