Karehana Bay

Karehana Bay is a locality generally considered to be within the suburb of Plimmerton, north-west of the village centre. Population about 500.

It contains a portion of Moana Road along the south-west facing waterfront. Leading inland are Cluny Road, which winds along the south-east side of the valley floor before zigzagging part-way up the side of a small hill, and Airlie Road, generally parallel to Cluny Road but with fewer sharp turns and leading right out of the valley through rural land over towards Whenua Tapu. The third-longest road is Gordon Road, which climbs the hill north of the valley and has Ogilvy Terrace going off it. Leading off Cluny Road is the north end of Motuhara Road, which has its southern end at the Plimmerton village centre.

Facilities apart from housing and public reserves include Moana Lodge (a prize-winning backpackers hostel), a Presbyterian Church, and the Plimmerton Boating Club.
