Geocache Description:

A Sunday drive in the country where you can enjoy the sea, the views and the peace & quiet

Koukourarata, or Port Levy, as it is now referred to is a peaceful, scenic bay on the northern side of Banks Peninsula. Port Levy was the largest Maori settlement in Canterbury in the mid 1800s with a population of about 400 people. Now the 2001 census records a population of 84.
This cache is at the head of the valley, so whilst you explore the rest of this beautiful bay, take some time to look for the site of possibly the first Anglican church in Canterbury.

The cache is a 200ml container, located above ground. YOU DO NOT NEED TO WALK IN THE FLOWERS TO FIND IT.

When placed it contained the usual notebook, pencil and swaps, Gheko, seashell, bug, carving
