Part of a strange global geological phenomenon, unusually large, near-perfect spherical boulders can be found on a lonely beach around 40 kilometres from the town of Oamaru in New Zealand’s South Island.
The Moeraki boulders, also known by their Maori name of “Kaihinaki,” lie on Koeohe Beach and have delighted tourists and intrigued scientists alike over the years, with their distinct shape and size reaching 2.2 metres in diameter.
