Journey to Pupu Spring


Pupu Spring

The Te Waikoropupu Springs ('Pupu Springs') are located in Golden Bay, on New Zealand's South Island. The springs are known for the clarity of the water, and the volume of water discharged. The springs are spiritually significant to the Māori people.

Too bad, the weather is not good, raining causing the water not so clear.
Waited 2 hours in the car for the rain to stop.

Able to see the lake floor.
