- Flag of the Chatham Islands
The (unofficial) flag of the Chatham Islands ("Wharekauri" in Maori; "Rekohu" in the indigenous language, Moriori). In the centre is the map of the island with the Te Whanga lagoon depicted in white. Behind the map is a depiction of the rising sun.

It was reported that at the 2005 opening of a new marae on the islands, which included a rare visit by the New Zealand Prime Minister, the Chathams flag was clearly seen flying from a flagpole over the Marae.Fact|date=September 2008
