On the Muriwai side of the Muriwai Gannet Colony walk, steps descend to a large, prominent rock platform. This juts out from the end of Otakamiro Point below the north end of the gannet colony. It is a popular fishing spot but also gives a very different perspective of the cliffs below the colony and of steep-sided Motutara Island, which features prominently in photos of the colony from the walkway viewpoints.
Take care near the edge at high tide; the surf splash and wash can be a bit mesmerising!
