Pancake Rocks
This is at Punakaki, South Island, New Zealand. At Pancake Rocks the sea bursts though a number of vertical blowholes during high tides and erodes the limestone rocks. The pancake layering of the limestone is due to the immense pressure on alternating hard and soft layers of marine creatures and plant sediments.
