Explore RikoRiko Cave, Poor Knights Islands, New Zealand
Explore Rikoriko Cave in New Zealand, the world's largest sea cave. The cave is located in Maroro Bay on the north west side of Aorangi Island in the Poor Knights Islands. The cave is 130 metres long, a depth below water of 26 metres, and a height to the ceiling above water of 35 metres, and a width of 80 metres.
Rikoriko Cave means dancing light, from the shimmering that can be seen on the water at certain times of the day. Its acoustics are so good that New Zealand band Split Enz played a concert there and divers attested to the vibrations felt beneath the sea.
In the Second World War a Japanese submarine tucked away inside the cave and stopped for two weeks whilst undergoing repairs.
