This is a place for contemplation, rejuvenation and inspiration. Its soulful, severe beauty attracts artists, potters and art directors from Auckland’s adland. Karekare was the sullen, windswept backdrop for the 1993 movie The Piano and Xena has had many a sword and sandals moment here. It’s an environmentally sensitive area, with advocates constantly lobbying for the protection of the easily-trampled dunes in Piha, the coastline, native bush and rainforest. Piha is the most exclusive of the neighbourhoods and the only one with a road running alongside the beach. Muriwai appeals mainly because of its relative accessibility to Auckland. For others the stark, mystical remoteness of Bethells Beach, Anawhata and Karekare is a bonus, not a drawback.

The Auckland Regional Council was given the opportunity to publish this report on the intertidal plants and animals of the Waitakere Ranges Coast by Bruce Hayward and Margaret Morley. The report is the result of a considerable amount of effort on the part of the authors and a wider group of participants and contributors during field-work, taxonomic identification, analysis and presentation of the information. The report presents the findings of this body of work accompanied by comprehensive species and habitat lists, coupled with an extensive array of handsome figures, illustrations and maps. The Council considers that the report provides a valuable information resource for those interested in Auckland's coastal ecology and biodiversity. The Council greatly appreciated the opportunity to make this valuable body of work available to the community through contribution of only the comparatively minor costs of formatting and printing.

  • TP146 Kaipara River Catchment Water Allocation Strategy 2001 Part B
    B – Resource Statement 13 4 Physical Characteristics 4.1 Geography The location and boundaries of the Kaipara River catchment are shown in Map 1. The catchment drains an area of 270 square kilometres extending from the foothills of the Waitakere Ranges in the south and Riverhead Forest in the east to the Kaipara Harbour in the north. For the purposes of water resource management, eight sub-catchments (shown in map 1) have been delineated. Part of the southern catchment (an area of approximately 20 km2) is located within the boundaries of Waitakere City. From these elevated headwaters, the river flows north as the Kumeu River into Rodney District, within which the main part of the catchment lies. North of Kumeu Township the river flows in a westerly direction, to be met by the Ararimu and Tikokopu Streams which drain the north eastern part of the catchment. The confluence of these streams, just upstream of Waimauku, marks the upper limit of the Kaipara River proper. The River continues to flow west, being joined by smaller tributaries such as the Waimauku Stream and Wharauroa Stream, until at Woodhill the northerly flow resumes. Downstream of Woodhill, the Lower Kaipara River meanders through an increasingly wide floodplain towards Helensville. North of Helensville, the river is joined by the remaining two tributaries of note, the Awaroa and Moau Streams, before meeting the Kaipara Harbour at Parakai. 4.2 Geology and Hydrogeology Map 2 is a schematic representation of the catchment geology based on New Zealand Geological Survey maps. The basement geology of the catchment comprises Miocene aged Waitemata Group sedimentary rocks.
