Stories of our harbour, commissioned by the Pauatahanui Inlet Community Trust (PICT). There's a new episode every month - a diary for the whole year. Don't miss them!
Pauatahanui Inlet
Pauatahanui Inlet is the only large estuarine wetland left in the lower half of New Zealand's North Island. It is at risk, mainly from human activities in both the Inlet and its catchment. We call ourselves the Guardians of Pauatahanui Inlet because we work to promote recognition of the ecological, recreational and cultural values of the Inlet.
