Description: Perpendicular Point, known as Te Miko to Māori, is a coastal headland north of Punakaiki, West Coast, New Zealand. A notorious obstacle to coastal travel, the cliffs had ladders built from rātā vine and harakeke, later replaced by chains and rungs, until a reliable inland road was built in the 1860s.
