Te Taua Moana Navy Marae is listed as a historic site at 29 Cautley Street in Stanley Point, on Auckland's North Shore. It has a 5.0 rating on Google. The marae is the Navy's marae at the Devonport naval base area.
A marae is a meeting place of deep cultural importance, where people gather for ceremonies, welcomes, tangihanga and community events, so a visit is different from going to a museum. Marae are not usually open for casual sightseeing, and visitors generally come by invitation or arrangement, so the first thing to do is to contact the marae to ask whether and how you can visit. If you are welcomed, expect a pōwhiri, with karanga, speeches and waiata, and follow the guidance of your hosts: remove shoes at the whare, do not eat or drink inside the meeting house and listen carefully to the kaumātua. Regulars know that bringing a koha is customary, that photography needs permission and that arriving on time shows respect. A naval base area may also have security and access rules, so ask in advance.
For anyone with a connection to the Navy or an invitation to visit Stanley Point, Te Taua Moana Navy Marae is a place to approach with care and respect.
