Karehana Bay
Karehana Bay is a bay and nearby residential area at the western end of Plimmerton, a northern coastal suburb of Porirua. It is located near the entrance to the Porirua Harbour, to the south-east of Hongoeka. It is about 5 minutes drive to Karehana Bay from the State Highway 1 turnoff to Plimmerton. The area looks out towards Mana Island and across Cook Strait to the South Island.
Karehana Bay is the site of a fine sediment beach, the Plimmerton Boating Club (since 1925〔Plimmerton Boating Club, Club History, http://www.plimmertonboatingclub.org.nz/history.htm〕), Karehana Park and the Karehana Bay Scenic Reserve.
== Name ==
The bay and the adjacent residential area are named after Whakataki Karehana, a Ngati Toa chief who lived in the area in the 1890s.〔Porirua City Council, Karehana Bay Scenic Reserve Management Plan, December 2001, http://www.pcc.govt.nz/DownloadFile/Publications/Leisure-and-Recreation-Plans/GetImage.aspx?imageid=a39f94fe-ad74-4498-948e-6c175d181b70&downloadnow=true〕 The name was assigned to the area by the Hutt County Council in 1923.〔"Plimmerton Extension - Large enough for a name", Evening Post, Volume CV, Issue 85, 10 April 1923, Page 8, http://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/cgi-bin/paperspast?a=d&cl=search&d=EP19230410.2.101&srpos=3&e=-------10--1----0%22plimmerton+extension%22--〕 The name Karehana Bay has been depicted in maps and survey plans since 1952 and Karehana Bay (suburb) was first named as a separate suburb from Plimmerton in Department of Lands and Survey maps in 1965. It continues to appear in Land Information New Zealand topographical maps, along with the bay.〔Land Information New Zealand, Geographic Name Proposal - Submission Report: Plimmerton, http://www.linz.govt.nz/sites/default/files/docs/placenames/submission-reports/nzgb-submission-report-plimmerton-20111103.pdf〕 However, in 2011 the New Zealand Geographic Board accepted a Porirua City Council proposal to amalgamate the recorded names of "Karehana Bay" and "Plimmerton" under the official name "Plimmerton".〔Land Information New Zealand, Consultation on proposed names: Plimmerton, http://www.linz.govt.nz/placenames/consultation-decisions/a-to-z/plimmerton〕
