These Kaikoura "icons" reflect the things that give the town its unique character.
This one is opposite the Kaikoura Visitor's Centre.
And, of all the times we've visited the town - I still haven't taken a photo of a crayfish...
My previous blogpost about this sculpture was completely incorrect, so I have deleted it and placed the comment to that original post here. (no doubt one too many Latte's were consumed by me that day...)

"The above reference regarding Hapuku Cafe is completely incorrect. First of all the fish shown in the photograph does not represent a Hapuku (otherwise known as Groper, Grouper, or Big Bellied Fish). The fish sculpture resides above a restaraunt / bar called Sonic on the Rocks - the location listed is correct. The true Hapuku Cafe was part of Hapuku Lodge (www.hapukulodge.com), located 12kms N. of Kaikoura. Hapuku Cafe was closed to non-guests this year but hopes to reopen next year as a full service restaraunt."
- Thanks for the comment, it's great to get feedback and get the facts right...
