Manukau City is a city in the Greater Auckland region of New Zealand. It is the third largest city in New Zealand. While officially described as being a city unto itself, Manukau is a de facto part of the city of Auckland, there not being any clear divisions between Manukau and the rest of the city other than administrative boundaries and some harbour inlets. The area is commonly referred to as South Auckland, but this term does not possess any official recognition and does not encompass East Auckland, which is within the official boundaries of Manukau City.

The name Manukau is of Maori origin, and may mean "wading birds", although it has been suggested that the name of the harbour after which the city is named was originally Manuka, a type of native tree.
