Summary
Kopuahingahinga Island is located within the Pahurehure Inlet of the Manukau Harbour, south Auckland. The island covers 11.3ha and is situated near the mouth of Drury Creek, immediately to the south of larger Pararekau Island (Fig. 1). Both islands are connected to the mainland by way of a causeway that runs through the middle of Kopuahingahinga Island. Although private land, both islands can be viewed from the southern motorway near Karaka
