Hawke's Bay Halal Travel Guide

The Hawke's Bay neighborhood gets its name from Hawke Bay, a large bay in the North Island's eastern coastline. The neighborhood extends south almost to Woodville (New Zealand) | Woodville in Wairarapa.

Hawke's Bay was one of the original colonial provinces when New Zealand was colonised by British settlers in the mid to late nineteenth century. The original province stretched from the 39th parallel (north of Napier) to the Manawatu River south of Woodville, and this area has its own anniversary day public holiday, Hawke's Bay Show Day, which is held on the Friday before Labour Day (the fourth Monday in October). The small part of modern Hawke's Bay north of the 39th parallel observes Auckland Anniversary Day on the Monday closest to 29 January instead.

The flat fertile land has been developed for farming. Initially sheep, later beef and dairying as well as forestry, orcharding and cropping. The warm dry sunny climate makes the region ideal for fruit cocktailgrowing and the vineyard industry has developed strongly in recent years.
