Ōrongorongo Station is a large and historic rural property located near the southern end of Coast Road in Wainuiomata, bordering the Turakirae Head Scientific Reserve. It spans thousands of hectares and includes farmland, native bush, and coastal areas. The station has been used primarily for sheep and cattle farming, but it also plays a role in conservation efforts due to its proximity to protected areas.
