Tauanui is a 351 m (1,152 ft) high basaltic scoria cone in the Kaikohe-Bay of Islands volcanic field in New Zealand and located south east of Tautoro township. It is the youngest volcano of the southern part of the field, having erupted around 60,000 years ago, and also the southernmost of the group.
