The St Paul volcanic plug (Māori name Ohakiri) that rises over the settlement of Whangaroa

Whangaroa, also known as Whangaroa Village to distinguish it the larger area of the former Whangaroa County, is a settlement on Whangaroa Harbour in the Far North District of New Zealand. It is 8 km north-west of Kaeo and 35 km north-west of Kerikeri. The harbour is almost landlocked and is popular both as a fishing spot in its own right and as a base for deep-sea fishing.[3]
