A visit to the Split Apple Rock is a must on a kayak

In the Tasman Bay off the north coast of the South Island of New Zealand is the Split Apple Rock

It looks like a halved apple and is made of granite, a popular tourist attraction in the waters of the Tasman Sea.

a legend tells:
Two Maori gods fought for possession of this large boulder. To settle the dispute, they used their godlike powers and divided the boulder in half

Marco F. Delminho, Daniela, Erhard Bernstein, John Cass and 5 other people have particularly liked this photo

Wow - I wonder how it did get split like that. Probably from an earthquake or something like that many years ago.
