About

Cathedral Caves are a highlight for visitors to The Catlins. Located in cliffs at the northern end of pristine Waipati Beach, they have attracted international interest for their length - the two sea-formed passages together measure just 200 metres - and their impressive height, up to 30 meters.


Popular for decades, this outstanding natural feature is 15km south of the village of Papatowai and 2km off the highway. From the car park, a one-kilometer walking track descends through lush coastal forest to the beach. Visitors cross Maori freehold land, which is managed by a trust.
