#Marlborough’s Whites Bay (📷1) is named for a black whaler, Black Jack White, who arrived in 1826 to live with Māori. In 1886 the first telegraph cable linked South Island here to North Island’s #Wellington; the cable station was restored in 1977 (📷3). Black Jack Track is a 4km loop that begins climbing from the E end of the bay (📷3); it has views into Port Underwood (📷4).
