Also known as Ruakaka
Ruakākā is a small town on Bream Bay, in Whangarei District in the north of New Zealand, around 30 kilometres south of central Whangārei. Originally a small beachside community, Ruakākā saw development in the 1980s due to expansion of nearby Marsden Point, New Zealand's sole oil refinery. A recently established timber processing plant at Marsden Point has further stimulated growth.

==History== The name comes from the Māori term , which means the nesting hole of the kākā (Nestor meridionalis), a native parrot that nests in cavities in hollow trees. The name of the locality was usually spelled "Ruakaka", without macrons, until the official name was changed in 2019.
