Шаблон:Use New Zealand English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox settlement Dairy Flat is a northern rural district located 8 km south of Orewa in the North Island of New Zealand and 28 km north of central Auckland. Until the early 1990s most of the district was in dairy farms of 40 to 60 hectares (100 to 150 acres), but with the growth of Auckland and the extension of the Northern Motorway into the area, these are being gradually overtime subdivided into lifestyle blocks of around 2 to 5 hectares (5 to 12 acres), many of which are grazing sheep, horses, beef cattle or deer. Although it still retains a rural character, it is counted as part of the Auckland urban area in official statistics.

History

In the 1850s, Maurice and Mary Kelly established a dairy farm in the area, likely at the location of the North Shore Aerodrome. They named the adjacent stream Dairy Stream, and Dairy Flat was in turn named after the stream. The first known references to the name Dairy Flat come from 1865. The area was a plentiful source of kauri gum, which was sold at the local kauri gum camps: Bull Town on Poyntons Farm, Tiger Camp, and Horse Shoe Bush/Nanahu. Maurice Kelly took over the family timber felling business in the 1860s and 1870s. In 1878, Dairy Flat School was established.

In 1931, local residents lobbied for the area's name to be changed from Dairy Flat to Pine Valley, but this measure was not successful. The area started to be used for flights in the early 1960s, an in 1963 the North Shore Aero Club was established, operating from North Shore Aerodrome.

The planned Auckland Surf Park is a heated artificial surfing lagoon set to be located in Dairy Flat when it opens between 2026 and 2027.
