Journey's End
Journey's End by @Thorvald (El Thorvaldo)

Te Rerenga Wairua (Cape Reinga), New Zealand, the meeting point of the Tasman Sea and Pacific Ocean, and the point where fabled Polynesian explorer Kupe believed the Maori spirits gather before departing for the afterlife. You can see the currents meeting near the lighthouse; while there wasn't much storm and fury when I was there, I gather it can get foamy at the right tide.
