Onehunga has a rich heritage to explore too with its history of Maori and European settlement and trade. Onehunga means "burial place" and refers to the area's Maori burial caves. Find out more about Onehunga's history by taking a heritage walk - it's a great way to discover our neighbourhood.
Jellicoe Park, a short walk from the town centre, is a good place to start and a truly unique drawcard. There are museums, an historic home, swimming pools and wonderful gardens to enjoy. And then there's the beautiful Manakau Harbour to enjoy, right on Onehunga's doorstep.
Discover Onehunga and see for yourself!
