Akuaku, also known as Aku Aku, was a settlement approximately halfway between Waipiro Bay and Whareponga in the East Coast region of New Zealand's North Island. A traditional landing point for waka taua, the town is most notable now as the former home (and possible birthplace) of Major Ropata Wahawaha, N.Z. C, as well as the ancestral home of Te Whānau-a-Rākairoa. Akuaku was once a thriving settlement — the hub of the area — with a school, church, and a marae with a wharenui called Rakeiroa.
