About Waiheke Island
Waiheke Island is a real gem. A short ferry ride over the Hauraki Gulf from Auckland to the Island, it’s the perfect day trip. Waiheke Island is home to about 9,000 permanent residents, many of whom work in the olive groves and vineyards on the island, as well as hospitality. The summers are usually long, hot and dry, ideal for the olive trees.
A local legend
“Aotearoa New Zealand was settled by the tangata whenua over 600 years ago, and many place names throughout the country today signify important cultural and historical events.
In the 14th century, the great Te Arawa waka, captained by Tamatekapua, came to shore at Waiheke Island at the end of a long oceanic voyage. Here, Tamatekapua rested and relashed Te Arawa before continuing to the Coromandel Peninsula. The site of his rest henceforth became known as Te Rangihoua, meaning ‘the day of renewal’.”
