The Wind Wand

Very cool to see in person!

It is such a beautiful place here. I walk along here during my lunch breaks at work. There is a beautiful walkway, amazing shoreline and some interesting monuments. It is in the centre of New Plymouth and so close to everything

The wind wand is part of the coastal walk or bike trail. Highly recommended. Beautiful clean and close to the other attractions of New Plymouth

Obviously an icon on the coastal walkway, the wind wand sways back & forth on the ocean breezes as the sculptor, Len Lye, wished it to. He had a passion for dance in his work evidently & how that manifests on the breezes with the ocean as a backdrop is artistic in itself. At night the light is an icon of the waterfront

Tranquil sculpture as it sways with the wind. Good coastal walk as well - nice and close to city centre so u could come here for a walk after meals
