Avon Heathcote Estuary
The Avon Heathcote Estuary is the largest semi-enclosed shallow estuary in Canterbury and remains one of New Zealand’s most important coastal wetlands. It is well known as an internationally important habitat for migratory birds, and it is an important recreational playground and educational resource. It was once highly valued for ''mahinga kai'' (Māori for food gathering).〔(Newsletter ), (Estuary Trust ), New Zealand, 2007.〕
== Location ==
The Avon River enters the estuary from the northwest, and the Heathcote River from the south-west. The estuary has a triangular shape, a short inlet connection with Pegasus Bay, and is primarily enclosed by the long Brighton Spit, on which the suburbs New Brighton, South New Brighton and Southshore are located.
The most prominent features of the inlet are the single deep channel between Rapanui Rock ("Shag Rock") and Brighton Spit.
