Matiatia
Matiatia is a location at the western end of Waiheke Island, in New Zealand's Hauraki Gulf. The name is used for both a valley and its surrounding hills, with the valley stretching down to a foreshore and wharf on the gulf. Matiatia is known as "The Gateway to Waiheke Island".
The Māori language name mātiatia is shared with a type of beach grass, Poa triodioides, now rare at Matiatia, which was said to have grown at the ground where a former Māori Village once stood.
