Makorori Beach Sunrise

Makorori Beach Sunrise shows waves rolling onto the shoreline as the sun begins to peek over the horizon. The orange tones in the sky are reflected in the wet sand, creating a strong connection between the sky and the beach. The timing captures the moment just before full sunrise, with light building across the scene.
Makorori Beach is located near Gisborne on New Zealand’s East Coast and is well known as one of the first places in the world to see the sunrise. Its open coastline and expansive sands make it a popular location for early-morning photography.
