  1. Wharemauku STREAM and kapiti island

  2. wharemauku • The Wharemauku Stream is a stream on the KapitiCoast of New Zealand's North Island. Its headwaters are in the Maungakotukutuku valley, and it flows through Paraparaumu and Raumati Beach before reaching the Tasman Sea on the northern side of Raumati Marine Garden. From its headwaters to the sea, it passes through Kapiti Golf Course, Kaitawa Park, under the North Island Main Trunk Railway and State Highway 1, Coastlands shopping centre, part of Paraparaumu Airport and WekaPark.

Every effort is made to minimize the adverse effects of any introduced plants or animals that have managed to establish on the island. Most people never get an opportunity to visit nature reserves because access to them is so difficult. • Kapiti is one of a few relatively accessible island nature reserves. It provides an opportunity for people to observe birds that are either very rare or absent from the mainland, and to see the recovery of vegetation after intensive modification during last century.
