A trip to a coastal wetland and dunes, a driftwood sculpture competition and a beach clean-up are some of the events in Whanganui for Seaweek/Kaupapa Moana.

Whanganui's rich heritage holds huge value not just financially but socially and culturally too. Mike Tweeds asks just how much it's worth.
It's the 'authenticity' of Whanganui's history and heritage that makes it unique, says
Lisa Reweti.
"I could go to Rotorua and watch this beautiful kapa haka and eat a hangi, but is that authentic?," Reweti asked.
