Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Marae
Ko Tumutumuwhenua te whare Tupuna, Ko Te Puru o Tāmaki te whare kai, Ko Ōrākei te marae.
Ōrākei Marae is a living breathing part of the Ngāti Whātua people. Located above Ōkahu Bay on the shores of the Waitematā Harbour, Ōrākei Marae is just a 10-minute drive from downtown Tāmaki Makaurau. Takaparawhau (Bastion Point), where the Marae is based, is steeped in rich culture and history, boasting in spectacular views of the Waitematā Harbour and Te Kahu Tōpuni o Tuperiri.
Tumutumuwhenua, the ancestor the house represents, has connections to all the major tribes throughout Aotearoa.
