Bream Bay, Northland, New Zealand - Medium

🌊 Bream Bay Wooden Ocean Depth Map – A Handcrafted Tribute to Northland’s Coastal Beauty

From the dramatic cliffs of Whangārei Heads to the rolling dunes of Mangawhai, this handcrafted wooden map captures the stunning geography of Bream Bay. At its heart sit the Hen and Chicken Islands, rising from deep water like sentinels of the sea — a protected nature reserve and a striking feature in this beautifully layered piece.

Designed and built in Aotearoa, each layer is laser-cut from European Birch plywood, then painted and assembled by hand to accurately showcase the bay’s bathymetry — from shallow estuaries to deep coastal waters.
