Hawke’s Bay: Pekapeka Wetlands

Images of the Hawke’s Bay Wetland Reserve

Pekapeka Wetlands is a wetland reserve located 12 kilometres by road south of Hastings in the Hawke's Bay, New Zealand. A good place to photograph throughout the year, at sunrise and sunset. And, if you wait for a calm day, you’ll likely get beautiful reflections as well.
