Have a Tsunami Evacuation Plan Ready

In Aotearoa, being prepared for a tsunami is essential if you live near the coast. Knowing your evacuation zones and routes ahead of time can save lives. If you feel a long or strong earthquake, don’t wait for an official warning – move to higher ground immediately or as far inland as possible. Make sure your whānau knows the plan: where to go, how to reconnect, and what essentials to grab. Practise your evacuation route regularly and have a go-bag ready.
