Geocache Description:


This spot is certainly a taonga to us all. It is a beautiful gateway to gather kai moana, enjoy a paddle, take a stroll or head out further in your small boat for a fish. The bay is tidal and has lots on offer for sealife, birdlife and the two legged variety.

This is a park and grab cache containing a log only so please BYOP.

Delaware Bay is an indentation in the New Zealand South Island coast east of Pepin Island, to the north of Nelson.[1] It is part of the larger Tasman Bay. The bay is named after the Delaware, a newly built brig which sank here on its maiden voyage from Nelson to Napier in 1863, an incident best remembered for the dramatic rescue attempts by a group of local Māori.[2]
