Huka Falls
The Huka Falls is regarded as one of New Zealand's most spectacular and most visited natural attractions. Huka Falls are created by water that has flowed through a wide riverbed around 100 metres wide and four metres deep, that is then confined to a narrow river section about 15 metres in width and 10 metres deep. At the top of the falls is a set of small waterfalls dropping over about eight metres. However, the most impressive part of the Huka Falls is watching extensive amounts of water flow over a cliff 11 metres (35 ft) high. The flow over the Huka Falls fluctuates between 32 and 270 cubic metres per second. On average the daily flow over the falls is 160 cubic metres per second. Depending on the flow of water, the height of the falls fluctuates between seven and nine and a half metres. The unique blue colour of the water at the base of the falls is created by the clear water reflecting the blue light and the air bubbles in the water intensifying the colour further. Huka means "foam" in Maori.
