Whangārei District Council - Flood Hazard Zones

Whangārei District Council

This map shows areas in the Whangārei district at risk of flooding from rivers and streams. The zones show which areas flood more often and which only go under in extreme events. River flooding is a well-known problem in parts of the Whangārei district. If your whenua is near a river or stream, this data shows you whether the council considers it a flood risk area, which can affect building consent requirements and insurance.
