- Meola_Reef abstract "Meola Reef, or Te Tokaroa Reef in Māori ('toka'='rock', 'roa'='long'),[citation needed] is a lava flow forming a reef peninsula across part of Auckland's Waitemata Harbour, New Zealand. The reef extends for over 2 kilometres across the harbour, to within 500 metres of Kauri Point on the northern shore.The reef was formed more than 28,000 years ago from the final portion of a 11 kilometre lava flow that originated from Mount Saint John volcano. Until 2008 it was believed the lava had flowed from Three Kings volcano, but geochemical analyses that year revealed that the lava matched that of Mount Saint John. The route of the lava flow had been disguised by Mount Eden, which had later erupted through it.The reef is easily seen in the west from the Auckland Harbour Bridge at low tide, when much of it lies exposed. The best viewpoint is at Kauri Point, the headland to the east of Kendall Bay. The portion of the reef close to shore is covered by mangroves, and further out the rocks are covered by rock oysters, then bare. Strong footwear is needed to walk on the lava.Located between the Point Chevalier and Westmere suburbs, it was the site of the city's tip for many years. This has now been capped and replaced by a 15 ha public reserve, with mangrove swamps in the streams and tidal salt marshes either side.In the 1970s, plans for a Second Harbour Crossing from the reef to Birkenhead were shelved after public outcry.".
