Sinclair Head  

Sunday is a good day to go for a walk out to Sinclair Head on the Wellington south coast.
Why Sunday? Because that's the day that the council doesn't let the mobility-impaired 4-wheel drive morons onto that part of the coast, so it's walkers & bikers only. It's about 2-3 hours return by foot from Owhiro Bay.
On the way you pass Red Rocks ... which really are red ... some kind of red greywacke.
