Ohaeawai
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ohaeawai is a small village at the junction of State Highway 1 and State Highway 12 in the Far North District of New Zealand, some 250 km from Auckland. Nearby is the site of the bloody Battle of Ohaeawai fought at Pene Taui's pā in 1845. The therapeutic mercurial waters of the minor health spa of Ngawha Springs are in a small thermal area to the west, where the new Northland prison is situated. The village is the centre of a rich farming district, with the town of Kaikohe further west and the Bay of Islands a short drive to the east.
