The Legend of Lake Tikitapu - The Blue Lake
The half-forgotten tale of the blue lake, which is enshrined in its name – Tikitapu. ‘Tiki’ meaning greenstone neck ornament and ‘tapu’ meaning sacred. In ancient times, the daughter of a high-born chief was bathing in the crystal blue waters of the lake and wore a tiki looped through flax cord around her neck. As she swam the necklace slipped off her neck and sunk to the bottom of the lake. Her tribe searched and searched for the necklace but the tiki was never found. The blue waters of Tikitapu still hide the sacred necklace that was lost so long ago, so be sure to keep an eye out next time you go for a swim!
