13 January 2014 ~ Hole in the Rock

Listening to: Craig Erickson ~ You Just Don't Know

Motu Kōkako, also known as Piercy Island or simply "The Hole In The Rock”, is located off the north coast of the North Island of New Zealand. It is at the very northern tip of Rakaumangamanga (Cape Brett).

 

It is Māori freehold land for the benefit of the descendants of the traditional owners.

 

The island is of great cultural significance and was historically associated with a range of sacred customary activities. It also refers to a person who stands against all adversity, just as a rock resists the power of the sea.
