Description | Avana was once named Te Avatapu-ki-Avaiki (the Sacred Passage to Avaiki, the ancestral homeland of the Polynesian people). There is a sense of realization when you stand on the shoreline looking into the mouth of the passage because it appears as though the sea has disappeared into the horizon and onto Avaiki, hence its name. |
