From atop the cliff, visitors to Castlepoint in Wairarapa on the North Island of New Zealand can admire the picturesque scenery of this coastline as the sunset colors begin to fade off in the distance. Castlepoint Lighthouse stands as a prominent landmark on the cliff as the beacon atop begins to glow for 26 nautical miles as darkness sets in.
A long wooden staircase leads down to Castlepoint Lighthouse where visitors can watch as each sunset displays a different show over the Wairarapa coastline. A walk along the rocky cliffs will take you between the calm lagoon where the holiday resorts in Castlepoint are located and on the other side, the rougher waters of the Pacific Ocean.
Sunset at Castlepoint Lighthouse which overlooks the lagoon and bay, Castlepoint, Wairarapa, North Island, New Zealand.
