Te Matuku Bay is a bay on Waiheke Island in New Zealand's Hauraki Gulf. It is one of the largest and least disturbed estuaries on the island. Since 2003, the area has been protected as part of Te Matuku Marine Reserve.[1][2]
The bay and marine reserve are named after the now-rare matuku or Australasian bittern.[3]
Te Matuku has public toilets but no shops. The area has opportunities for swimming, diving, boating, kayaking, snorkelling and walking where weather conditions permit.[4]
