Tamaki Estuary Nov 2022,

Although now known for it's birdlife, ferries and three bridges, the Tamaki Estuary was a busy commercial waterway for hundreds of years prior to European appropriation. Connecting the Waitemata with the Manukau, The Pacific with the Tasman, Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa with Te Tai-o-Rēhua - people, food and goods were moved along this firth. The isthmus at Ōtāhuhu is the crossroads of sea, land, wind and more. This land between the harbours is the primary nautical crossing in the North Island. Portage Road marks this today. On the East coast, Tamaki is the Hauraki Gulf departure point for Northland, Coromandel and Bay of Plenty voyages. From the West across the Manukau, waka departed northwards to the Kaipara and Hokianga and southwards to the Waikato river and Taranaki. The Waikato is the watercraft equivalent of the M1 down Te Ika a Maui. South of the Waikato river, goods such as obsidian were transported / portaged across Lake Taupō, Tongariro, the Whangaui River down to Kāpiti, and ultimately Te Wāhipounamu in the deep south. All made easier by the Tamaki Estuary route. The area where the boat was launched is the rohe of Ngāti Pāoa. Given options either way from Half Moon Bay, this is a good put in for a combination of reasons. However, tides can make more of a difference than usual. It can be windy and rough or be surprisingly sheltered. Reef early, trust the boat, watch out for moorings. #Mayzi
