Owaka is a small rural town located in the Clutha district of the Otago region, in the South Island of New Zealand. The name "Owaka" comes from the Māori language, meaning "place of the canoe." The town serves as a gateway to the Catlins, a scenic area known for its rugged coastline, native forests, and wildlife.
Historically, Owaka developed as a sawmilling town in the late 19th century, supporting the timber industry that was crucial to the region's early development. Today, the town maintains its historical character while serving as a service center for the surrounding farming community and as a stop for visitors exploring the natural and cultural heritage of the Catlins area. The local museum, housed in the former courthouse, preserves the area's history and provides insights into early settler life and the region's development.
