Mahurangi Regional Park is a regional park situated on the north-eastern coast of the Auckland Region of New Zealand's North Island. It is located in Rodney, north of the main Auckland urban area, and is owned and operated by Auckland Council.[1]

Geography

[edit]

The part is located on either side of the entrance to the Mahurangi Harbour.[2] The bulk of the regional park is found in Mahurangi West. In addition to this, two exclaves of the park are located on the eastern shores, in Scotts Landing, only accessible by boat.[3]

The western portion of the park is divided into two sections: one centred around Mita Bay in the north, and one around Te Muri beach in the south.[3]
