Monday 4 April Rangitoto & Motutapu Island

Jackster with Auckland behind
We're anchored in Islington Bay between Rangitoto and Motutapu islands. It's a beautiful day for a walk on Motutapu. David landed us at the jetty on Rangitoto island for a beach side walk to the causeway between the two islands. Motutapu is established farmland. Rangitoto appeared as a volcanic eruption from the sea 600 to 800 years ago.

We had a pleasant walk along the track to Emu Bay stopping off to take photos of Islington Bay with Auckland city scape behind. The afternoon flew past sunning ourselves in the cockpit.
