Cannibal Bay a beautiful spot with an unfortunate name
Further south down the coastline is Cannibal Bay which was named by an early explorer who mistakenly uncovered human bones here without realising at the time that they were from a local Maori burial site. The name does little justice to this gorgeous spot which is the local hang out of the New Zealand Sea Lion. These chaps, whilst scarce in number like nothing more than to loll around on the beach especially in summertime.
