We’ve crossed oceans, dodged customs, and packed extra socks because this time, we’re heading to New Zealand! Our mission? To uncover the truth behind legendary Māori creatures said to guard sacred lands and waters.
Join us as we plunge into the Pacific, hunting for signs of reptilian sea guardians known as taniwha. These mythical beings are woven into Māori lore, often described as dragon-like creatures that dwell in rivers, lakes, and coastal waters.
Some taniwha are fierce protectors of iwi (tribes), while others are known to be more mischievous or territorial. Either way, they’re not the kind of cryptid you want to surprise with a flashlight.
