Toetoes Harbor is a natural harbor in the Southland District of the Southland regionon the South Island of New Zealand .

geography

The Toetoes Harbor is located approximately 35 km southeast of Invercargill at the south side of the South Island of New Zealand, with access to the Foveaux Strait , the strait between the South Island and Stewart Iceland . The natural harbor, which is open to the south, has a length of around 4 km, whereby the transition from the Mataura River , which mainly feeds the waters next to the Titiroa Stream , to Toetoes Harbor is flowing, which makes an exact demarcation between the river and the natural harbor difficult. At its widest point, the natural harbor measures around 5.4 km and has a total coastline of around 12 km. The port entrance measures around 110 m.
