South Coast Light — Ōwhiro Bay

Late-afternoon light settles over Ōwhiro Bay on Wellington’s rugged south coast, where rolling waves meet the dark shoreline beneath the steep coastal headlands. Driftwood scattered across the foreground adds texture and depth to this quiet view towards Cook Strait, capturing the raw, windswept character of New Zealand’s capital coastline.
