Haumoana

Hawke Bay defines the setting of Haumoana — its Pacific shoreline gives this low-lying settlement a life oriented toward beach walks, fishing and rapidly changing coastal weather. The Tukituki River reaches the bay just south of the community, while the limestone headland of Cape Kidnappers continues along the coast beyond it. Haumoana lies within the rohe, or tribal territory, of Ngāti Kahungunu, the Māori iwi closely associated with Hawke’s Bay. The wider district is also known internationally for vineyards and food production. Its small residential scale contrasts with nearby Hastings and Napier, keeping the shore and surrounding rural plain at the centre of daily life.
