Matahiwi Marae
Ngati Hawea, Ngati Kautere. Matahiwi Marae is one of the oldest established marae of Ngati Hawea in Hawke’s Bay. It was set up originally as a neutral meeting area for the prominent chiefs around the area.
Today the reserve covers an area of 1.6 hectares and is situated near the mouth of the Tukituki river and surrounded by orchards, vines and horticultural enterprises.
Matahiwi is the gateway to the land, which bears the name, Cape Kidnappers. One can hear the stories that are recorded in the carvings about Maui, his family and the values they have left for the generations that follow to maintain and pass on.
