Waitahuna is a small rural hamlet in the Otago region of New Zealand's South Island. It is from Lawrence.
In the 19th century, the town thrived after the discovery of gold. The Waitahuna Gully Miner's Monument commemorates this discovery and the miners who lived in the area. Another notable man-made feature is the Waitāhuna River Suspension Bridge, built around 1905 or 1906.
