Patuharakeke are a composite hapu descended from most major iwi groups in the north. These include Ngati Wai, Ngapuhi nui tonu, Ngati Whatua and Te Uri o Hau. We affiliate to a very large number of hapu including Te Uriroroi, Te Koiwi, Te Akitai, Ngati Hau, Ngati Korora, Ngati Taka, Ngati Hine, Te Waiariki, Te Parawhau and many others.
Located on the south side of the Whangarei Harbour, the Patuharakeke rohe boundary stretches on the seaward side, including foreshore and seabed, from a point at the north of Mangawhai Heads to the entrance of the Mangapai River just south of Whangarei. The boundary extends inland to include the Brynderwyn (or Piroa) and Kakanui Ranges.

(Big-eyed Tangaroa)
‘The god of the sea can observe all we are doing’
The Roopu Mana Moana is a subcommittee of the Patuharakeke Te Iwi Trust Board and is mandated to act on our behalf on all matters pertaining to customary fisheries.
Our kaitiaki are gazetted under the Fisheries (Kaimoana Customary Fishing) Regulations 1998. Our kaitiaki also include members of Ngati Kahu o Torongare, Te Parawhau and Ngati Tu hapu in recognition of the whanaungatanga throughout the harbour.
Customary fishing permits are available from the kaitiaki should you intend to harvest kaimoana within the rohe moana.
Members of the Roopu include:
-
Reece Newton

Shane Watson

The Roopu has developed a Draft Rohe Moana Management Plan based on the following Tikanga/Management Principles:
-
Kaitiakitanga
-
Whanaungatanga
-
Manaakitanga
-
Integrated Management

Enhancement
The Vision:
A healthy rohe moana that enables us to sustain our whanau and kainga and manaaki our manuhiri with kaimoana.
The Draft Plan is currently being revised and contains more information on management objectives, customary harvest rules and kaitiaki management tools. It will be uploaded soon.
