Upon arriving in Rotorua, the distinct scent of sulphur fills the air, most potent at Sulphur Point. This geothermal wetland, with its ever-changing landscape, is a haven for 60 species of birds that thrive despite the warm, mineral-rich waters and boiling earth. Visitors can explore the area, observing the unique interplay of nature’s forces and the resilient wildlife that calls this dynamic environment home.
