Northlanders are being warned to stay off beaches and out of the water following the 7.5 magnitude earthquake in Canterbury.
Those living on the coast were evacuated early Monday morning as a precaution against a predicated tsunami.
Tsunami sirens were activated and Civil Defence Northland posted on Facebook asking Northlanders living on the coast to move inland or to higher ground immediately after the Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported there was an imminent threat.
People near the beach at Ngunguru evacuated themselves to the hills and it is understood this also occurred at Ruakaka and Tutukaka.
The tsunami siren also sounded at Ruawai on Kaipara's west coast harbour, but a decision was made by the Ruawai Community Response group there was no immediate need to evacuate.

Dr. Moss Retirement Announcement and Details
Dr Moss, Specialist Gynaecologist, at Riverside Women’s Healthcare, will be retiring in December, with her last consultation day scheduled for December 12, 2024.
Unfortunately, we have not yet found a successor. She will cease performing major surgeries, such as hysterectomies at the end of October to ensure that all post-operative follow-ups are completed before her retirement. However, she will continue to conduct minor surgeries until her final operating list on 6th December, which allows time for follow-up on results.
During November she will stop seeing most new patients except for urgent issues and will focus solely on follow-up appointments until December.
An email will be sent to all existing patients of Dr Moss with more details closer to the date.
