Anchor


Monkey Island is on the southern coast of New Zealand, west of Invercargill.  The island is known as Te Puka o Takitmu, the anchor stone of the Takitmu canoe that brought Pacific Islanders to the south island of New Zealand.

During low tide, the island is accessible but you don't want to be stuck there when the tide comes in.  There is a staircase to the top of the island with a small lookout platform at the top.



Technically speaking, the sign post above was not at Monkey Island, but it looks good here.
