Wainui Bay
New Zealand
Wainui Bay is within Golden Bay / Mohua, and at the south-eastern end of Golden Bay, in the Tasman Region of the South Island, New Zealand. Bordering the Abel Tasman National Park, it is approximately 24 kilometres (15 mi) north-east of Tākaka, the nearest town. There are several Department of Conservation walking tracks that start in Wainui Bay, including the Wainui Falls track, the Taupō Point track, and other tracks leading into the Abel Tasman National Park. On 18 December 1642, the first known encounter between Māori and Europeans happened out in the bay, which resulted in several dead Dutch sailors and the surrounding area being named Murderer's Bay.
