A number of young men have become quadriplegics after jumping of wharves and suffering spinal injuries.
However previous attempts by the council to ban diving at danger spots have failed, and it now takes a different approach with educational signs pointing out the risks.
ACC saw 230 claims last year for injuries suffered at jumping or diving structures, ranging from cuts and bruises to surgery for shattered ankles and damaged spines, and spinal unit consultant Rick Acland believes it's "almost criminal" to support wharf jumping.
Have you ever been injured jumping from Orewa wharf or the cliffs at Re Beach or Little Manly?
And what do you reckon? Should it be banned?
