Home > Cape Kidnappers

Cape Kidnappers is a headland at the southwestern extremity of Hawke Bay on the east coast of New Zealand's North Island. It is located 20 kilometres southeast of the city of Napier.

The promontory sits at the end of a eight kilometre long peninsula which protrudes into the Pacific Ocean. It was named after an attempt by local Maori to abduct one of the crew of Capt. James Cook's ship Endeavour in 1769.

The Cape is the site of a large gannet colony.
