The convergence of Māori and European cultures at Te Whanganui-o-Hei/Mercury Bay in 1769 stands as a pivotal gathering point that embodies the essence of our diverse and multicultural nation’s inception.
James Cook explored the Firth and the Waihou River in November 1769, noticing the extensive settlement and visiting a riverbank pā. Remembering the River Thames in England, Cook gave our river the same name. (In 1947 the name changed to Waihou, with only the Firth keeping the Thames name.)
