Makara is a locality located at the western edge of Wellington, New Zealand, close to the shore of the Tasman Sea.With winding road access from Karori or Ohariu, Makara is a rural area with sparse development.In the nineteenth century there was a small amount of gold-mining but no large-scale workable deposits were ever found.Adjacent to Cape Terawhiti the Cook Strait cables come ashore, carrying power and telecommunications between the North and South Islands.
