Ngāi Takoto is a Māori iwi from Northland, New Zealand. The iwi is one of the six Muriwhenua iwi of the far north of the North Island. Ngāi Takoto trace their ancestry back to Tuwhakatere,[1] and their arrival in New Zealand to the Kurahaupo canoe.[2]

Their Treaty of Waitangi settlement has been signed, but not yet legislated.[3]

Te Reo Irirangi o Te Hiku o Te Ika, an iwi radio station, serves Ngāi Takoto and other Muriwhenua tribes of the Far North. It broadcasts a main station on 97.1 FM, an urban contemporary station Sunshine FM on 104.3 FM and a youth-oriented station Tai FM.[4]
