Napier Hill Māori: Mataruahou is a limestone outcrop and suburb rising above the lowland districts of the city of Napier on New Zealand's North Island.
The north-east end, Bluff Hill, has a steep cliff face overlooking the Port of Napier. Offering spectacular outlooks over Hawke Bay and the port of Napier, this viewing area was constructed over the top of a World War II coastal defence gun emplacement.
Perfume Point.
This stretch of waterfront was known as the Town Spit in the early days of European settlement. In the 1870s, the former Hawke's Bay Provincial Council began sea protection works to stabilise and build up the beach. Remains of the timber pilings can still be seen just off the beachfront. The reserve is a popular viewing area for sailing and boating events on Hawke Bay. The Napier Sailing Club's starter box is located at the mouth of the Inner Harbour - an area whimsically known as Perfume Point because it was formerly the site of a sewer outfall
