à Âkahu Bay is a bay along TÃÂmaki Drive, Auckland, New Zealand. It is the ancestral land of NgÃÂti WhÃÂtua à ÂrÃÂkei and owned by NgÃÂti Whatua and co-managed by the Auckland Council.
The name Okahu Bay comes from the MÃÂori à Âkahu, meaning "the dwelling place of Kahumatamomoe".
à Âkahu Bay is part of the à ÂrÃÂkei ancestral land of NgÃÂti WhÃÂtua. In 1869 a Native Land Court Declaration alienated the land from all but thirteen owners, effectively stripping NgÃÂti WhÃÂtua of the land.
