Strait of Cook. New Zealand.

Stormy Cook Strait is located between the North and South Islands of the New Zealand archipelago and is considered one of the most unpredictable in the world. Its name he received in honor of the famous seafarer - James Cook, who in 1770 first crossed it. At the narrowest point, the width of the strait is 22 kilometers. In the Maori language, the strait was called "Raukawa", which literally translates as "bitter leaves".
