About the name Ipipiri
The Name Ipipiri (e-pip-e-rey) is first known to be recorded in 1824 as part of Louis Isidore Duperrey’s expedition to the Pacific
Here, the cartographer documented the Maori name Ipipiri to describe a cluster of islands within the region that Captain James Cook had earlier named ‘the Bay of Islands’. The name Ipipiri is defined as meaning “many places,” and was chosen by Fullers GreatSights after it was suggested by local iwi during consultation over suitable names.
