Muriwai塘鹅群
奥克兰
2023年8月更新 - due to storm damage tracks accessing the Muriwai Gannet colony are temporarily closed.
Muriwai塘鹅群 is situated in 穆里外地区公园, a 40 minute drive west of 奥克兰的市中心.
虽然 穆里外地区公园 is home to many species of birds, it's the Gannet Colony that attracts the most visitors. Two viewing platforms provide excellent vantage points to observe the gannets in a spectacular coastal location.
The birds return from Australia each year during the months of July and October to establish contact again with their lifelong mates. December is the time when new chicks strive for food and the parents dive into the sea at up to 145 km per hour so they can feed their young family. The colony tends to be deserted during May through to June (Late Autumn to Early Winter).
在Maukatia停车场, visitors can follow a short pathway that leads to the two viewing platforms which also offer great views of the rugged coastline and Muriwai海滩. The path also leads directly down onto the beach.
Before reaching the colony there is the 沙·邓兹咖啡馆 which is a good stop for coffee and lunch.
