Ban Bottom Trawling Event at Waiheke Island

Ahead of the general election, the future of Tīkapa Moana / the Hauraki Gulf is on the line, and this is your chance to stand up for it.
Bottom trawling is devastating our precious ocean. It drags heavy nets across the seabed, destroying delicate ecosystems, wiping out biodiversity, and robbing future generations of a thriving, living Gulf. But right now, banning bottom trawling has become a key election issue, and together, we can make our voices impossible to ignore.
Come and be part of something big. This family-friendly event brings together everyone who loves our ocean and wants to see it protected, for the creatures that call it home, and for the generations yet to come.
What's happening on the day:
🎤 Speeches from ocean advocates and community leaders
🎨 Free face painting for the kids
🌭 Free sausage sizzle
🎶 DJ bringing the beats
📢 The deployment of New Zealand's new and largest ban bottom trawling banner - a powerful visual statement you'll want to be a part of.
Let's make it clear: this election, our vote goes to those who commit to protecting Tīkapa Moana.
Bring your whānau, bring your friends, bring your passion for the sea. Together, we are the tide for change.
See you at Oneroa Beach, Waiheke Island - 12 noon, 25 October.
