Photo / File Hawkes Bay Today By: Wyn Drabble I approach Moeraki, not by Highway One but by the coast road from Oamaru. And what a splendid decision that is. Kilometre after kilometre of road that hugs eroded clay cliffs, which look down on golden-sand beaches being massaged by glassy waves, peeling left and right. As a teenager I used to come to these beaches with my surfing friends from Timaru. We would sometimes overnight in cramped tents overlooking Campbells Bay, breakfast on baked beans straight from the can, then surf the day away.
