Rangitoto Lava caves.

Rangitoto Lava caves.

A jewel for all Aucklanders and travellers, is this great island 5 km off the coast of Auckland. At 260 metres high and only 600 years old, this place makes the mind wonder.

There are many lava caves on the tourist trail and I believe some to be found still, which makes this island a great visit for any caver. We have been hunting for caves on a few occasions now and have had success, with more possibilities on each visit.
