Waikoropupu Springs is the clearest water I have ever seen. It's of significance to the Maori people with the following legend:
Waikoropupu is the legendary home of the female taniwha, Huriawa, one of the three main taniwha of Aotearoa. She is a diver of land and sea, travelling deep beneath the earth to clear blocked waterways. She is brave and wise and believed to still rest in the waters of Waikoropupu, when she is not away attending to business.

Oh you went to Pupu springs It is gorgeous isn't it and amazing how much crystal clear water comes straight from inside the earth.
Your header is absolutely stunning Love it
Looks like a beautiful place.
Superb.. I like the first one the most.
What a beautiful, tranquil pool of pristine water and what a lovely story behind it. There must be very few remaining places worldwide, such as this, that remain untouched by man's interference. How wonderful to have been able to visit it in person.
