Pancake Rocks - Punakaiki
Dramatic seascapes along the Punakaiki Coast culminate in the amazing stacks of giant pancake rock formations and booming blowholes.
Punakaiki is sited at the mouth of the Punakaiki River, 40 km north of Greymouth, on the West Coast. This small settlement is well set up for visitors with an information centre, tearooms, tavern, motels, lodges and a motor camp.
The Dolomite Point lookout above the famous pancake rocks, is a short walk from the road on a paved loop track.
You will hear the booming surf long before you set eyes on the slender towers that have been weathered to resemble a huge stack of pancakes.
