River of the Month - Waikouaiti

The Waikouaiti River  is located 30 mins drive from Dunedin City on the East Coast of the South Island. The  catchment covers 425km and flows into the Pacific Ocean at Karitane just north of Dunedin. The Waikouaiti-Karitane is a volunteer conservation group working in the Catchment since 1999.

 

The group aims to restore the balance to papatuanuku, have a healthy, productive river and estuary and most importantly foster a community who cares about this beautiful place where we live.
