Tinopai is a settlement on the Komiti Bay, part of the Hukatere Peninsula in the northern Kaipara Harbour in Northland, New Zealand. The Otamatea River flows from the north east past Tinopai and into the harbour. Matakohe is 23 km (14 mi) to the north.[3][4]
It is now a quiet backwater.[5] The population is approximately 400, but expands to 1000 during the summer holiday season.[6]
The Hukatere Scenic Reserve is on the road to Matakohe[7] and contains a bush walk with mature kauri trees, to the north of Tinopai.[8]
