This tiny bay, with its charming village rambling over a small headland, is situated on the southern shore of Lyttelton Harbour. Sunlight glittering on the water inspired the romantic title, and appropriately there is a sheltered beach with safe swimming, a cliff-top walk and a traditional corner store. The village can be reached via the winding, picturesque road from Governors Bay, which passes through Teddington, Charteris Bay and Church Bay and continues on to Purau Bay and Camp Bay. Alternatively, there is a daily ferry service from Lyttelton.
