This cave has been carved out over many years by the turquoise sea water that swells inside Cathedral Cave. Atop the cliffs that hang over Cathedral Cave in Akaroa Habour, is where you can view various bird species that sit and explore the vast waters of the sea.
Inside you can see the different layers created from various volcanic eruptions and the fascinating wonders of mother nature. The cave was well known to the Maori people only they called it Te Anau O Kokiro which was named after one of the chiefs.
