Hikuwai

Hikuwai Region

The Hikuwai Region extends from The Bombay Hills, north to Cape Reinga, the tip of the North Island.

The name Hikuwai means "The tail fish of Maui" and reflects the importance we give to biculturalism, and the geographical range of our region beyond the confines of Auckland.

The name was adopted after LIANZA Auckland Region members voted overwhelmingly to change the name of the region from "Auckland Region" in October/November of 1999.
