Whakanewha Regional Park, Waiheke Island, Auckland, New Zealand 

Opened in 2007, Whakanewha Regional Park is known for its mature coastal forest with taraire, kohekohe and old kanuka trees, cascading streams, and crescent-shaped beach with forested headlands.

Located on the South side of the Island, Whakanewha has a large wetland, home to some uncommon birds, bittern, banded rail, spotless crake and the New Zealand dotterel.

At high tide the shelly beach is often calm & ideal for swimming with nearby picnic areas. At low tide a sand/mud flat is exposed, so any pleasure boat anchoring should be wary of the depth.

Whakanewha means “to shade the eyes from the setting sun.”

The Auckland Council manages the Poukaraka Flats Campground at Rocky Bay, Whakanewha Regional Park on Waiheke Island.
