On this
picture you can observe the work of shoreline erosion. In
Moeraki you can see on the beach the Moeraki Boulders created by
the erosion. The erosion created these huge spherical balls of
stone which can weight tons and have a diameter of around three
meters. Erosion can happen from water, ice and wind. It is often
the displacement of rock, soil, mud or other solids. The Moeraki
Boulders are the results of shoreline erosion; the boulders are
one of the main attractions of Moeraki a small village. When you
walk along the beach of Koekohe you will see a large number of
boulders on the beach as if it is decoration that has been put
there. The Moeraki Boulders is unique to New Zealand. So while
you are on holiday in New Zealand, you should visit the
beautiful village of Moeraki. |
