After the Koutu boulders we continued driving down the Hokianga estuary, past Omapere, and stopped at an overlook for pix of the dunes, the harbor, the coast, and the wild Tasman Sea. From the overlook we descended to the beach for a low-tide stroll.

| Interesting conglomerate rock |
 |
| We got as far as the point there, then headed back up to the overlook |
 |
| Looking north again; beyond the point begins the 90 Mile Beach, almost all the way to Cape Reinga, land's end on the North Island |
