Not only is Maketu home to the Maketu Pie, it is an area steeped in history, surrounded by rugged beaches and epitomises the typical small town kiwi lifestyle.
Maketu, located about 15 minutes from Te Puke, was the landing place of the Arawa canoe following the migration of early Maori from Hawaiki. A memorial on the foreshore commemorates the landing.
Surfers and mussel lovers head for the privately-owned Newdicks beach which differs greatly from the beaches at Mount Maunganui with Pohutukawa trees, boulders, rocks and steep cliff faces. Enjoy a horse trek along the beach, get your board out at the popular surf spot or soak up the atmosphere and stunning views.
In season, the Kaituna river mouth – referred to as the Kaituna cut – near Maketu is awash with nets as locals try their luck at gathering whitebait. This is also a favourite swimming, boating and fishing area.
Famous in New Zealand and an icon of the area also are Maketu Pies. The pies originated in the kitchen of Nancy Robert and were sold in the old country store. Her son Grant now runs Maketu Pies, which are now sold by the thousands all across the country, the pies are still based on the old family recipe.
