The rāhui on inner Wellington Harbour has been lifted!

Thanks to everyone who respected the rāhui. Swimming, paddling, fishing etc in Oriental Bay and the area covered by the rāhui, from Ngauranga to Point Halswell, is all good.

However, please note that due to a separate network issue, signs advising against swimming will remain in place near the dive platform (from near Whairepo Lagoon Bridge to Clyde Quay/the Overseas Passenger Terminal), shown on the below map.

We’re carrying out daily monitoring of the water quality in these areas and will provide an update early next week.
