Pancake Rocks are near Dolomite Point near the village of Punakaiki on the south island of New Zealand. Pancake Rocks are a heavily eroded limestone area where the sea bursts though a number of vertical blowholes during high tides. The 'pancake'-layering of the limestone was created by immense pressure on alternating hard and soft layers of marine creatures and plant sediments.
