Mangawhai is a township at the south-west extent of the Mangawhai Harbour, or Mangawhai Estuary, in Northland, New Zealand. The adjacent township of Mangawhai Heads is 5 km north-east, on the lower part of the harbour. Kaiwaka is 13 km south-west, and Te Ārai 13 km south.
Te Ārai is a small community on the east coast of the North Island of New Zealand, in the northern part of the Rodney ward of the Auckland Region. Mangawhai lies to the north, and Tomarata to the south. The name comes from Tāhuhunui-o-te-rangi, captain of the Moekākara waka, who landed here and set up a temporary shelter (ārai). Tāhuhunui-o-te-rangi was later buried at Te Ārai.
