Tutukākā marina

Tutukākā is one of the many settlements along the coast from Bream Head to the Bay of Islands. It is a centre for big-game fishing, and divers depart from Tutukākā to explore the artificial reefs created by the sunken frigates Waikato and Tui. The marina provides berths for pleasure craft.
