Te Paki sands dunes

A popular spot ,bus tours stop here to allow those who wish to climb the dunes and come down on boogy boards a lot of fun but a hard climb

[Liana Bull]

An interesting scene. I like all the folks traipsing across the sand dunes like little ants.

[Joanna kate]

Quite a scene, a steep sand dune there

[katy]

It looks like great fun! Judging by the amount of people there. A terrific photo to show the action and the climb

[Wendy]

They look like ants climbing that dune!
Did you consider cropping the bottom trees out and making this a minimalist shot?
I just wonder what it would look like.

[Carole G]

The tourists are out in force. Did this a few years ago, but there wasn’t that many of us

[Diana]

Amazing shot.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

I wonder if many go back for a second try :)

[tony gig]

Lovely shot.

[Mandy]

Looks like fun but hard work. Great workout after the festivities!

[Dione Giorgio]

That would be nice to try out - I wouldn't miss the opportunity if I could notwithstanding the consequences. So much sand there. Gorgeous shot and great pov.

That dune must be so large for the people to look so small. I guess building a stairway is out of the question- haha! Good shot!
