"The name Tautuku is synonymous with the wilderness character of the Catlins coast. [...] Off to the left are the Rainbow Isles, known to Maori as Rerekohu ('Flying Mist'). In the right sea conditions and sunlight, a blowhole on the little island, a wildlife sanctuary, sends forth spray that lights up as a rainbow." From Neville Peat: The Catlins And The Southern Scenic Route, page 43.
