I was living in New Zealand at the time this picture was taken. I took a couple of weeks holiday and I went to the Bay of Islands. I don't remember who those people in the picture are, but they were travelling on the same bus as I was. I saw them taking pictures and I decided to take a picture of them. I really liked the result.
I took the description below from the 100% Pure New Zealand website: https://www.newzealand.com/au/feature/ninety-mile-beach/
Ninety-Mile Beach is the fabled strip of sand that stretches from Ahipara to Scott Point, five kilometres south of Cape Maria van Diemen. It is actually 88 kilometres (55 miles) long.
This beach is officially a highway, but is really only suitable for 4WD vehicles and is safe to drive only at specific times of the tides. Rental companies won’t allow their cars on the sand, mostly for safety reasons. The easy way to drive along the beach is to catch a coach tour from Kaitaia. If you are short of time in Northland and staying in the Bay of Islands, coach tours and scenic flights up to Cape Reinga depart from Paihia daily.
