Waipapa
Great Māori migration waka
Landed atDoubtless Bay
Settled atNorthland

InMāori tradition, Waipapa was one of the great ocean-going, voyaging canoes that was used in the migrations that settled NorthlandofAotearoa (New Zealand). The captains were Kaiwhetu and Wairere,[1] who landed the wakainDoubtless Bay.[2]

The exact landing site of the Waipapa is contested.[2] Various accounts place the landing point at Rangiaowhia, Taipa, Oruru,[2]orKarikari Peninsula.[1]

The captain asked his crew to take tawapou log rollers off the canoe, which had been carried from Hawaiki, and plant them on the slopes of a nearby hill. From the rollers grew a grove of tawapou trees that today serve as a memorial of the arrival of the canoe.[citation needed]
