KAIPOKOK BAY: Just south of the Bay of Islands, Kaipokok Bay is the small inlet in which the town of Postville is located. It is believed that Kaipokok comes from the word quipuqquq referring to a "humpback whale".

The bay is not mentioned in the Rankin Report so there was little information to be had.
