Hapua have been identified as establishing in the Canterbury Bight coastal region on the east coast of the South Island.

Hapua are non-estuarine, there is no tidal inflow however the tide does have an effect on the level of water in the lagoon.

Hapua are extremely important for a number of reasons.

Although there are a number of settlements with over 100 people, including Te Hapua, Te Kao, Pukenui and Kaimaumau, the Peninsula is sparsely inhabited, with a total population of approximately 1600.

Hapua form as the river carves out an elongated coast-parallel area, blocked from the sea by a MSG barrier which constantly alters its shape and volume due to longshore drift.

Hapua are located in areas dominated by longshore drift ; because it aids the formation of the barrier behind which the hapua is sited.

Hapua systems are driven by a wide range of dynamic processes that are generally classified as fluvial or marine ; changes in the balance between these processes as well as the antecedent barrier conditions can cause shifts in the morphology of the hapua, in particular the barrier.

Hapua are associated with MSG beaches as the variation in sediment size allows for the barrier to be permeable.

Hapua are often located on paraglacial coastal areas where there is a low level of coastal development and minimal population density.

Hapua are defined as a narrow shore-parallel extensions of the coastal riverbed.

Hapua or river-mouth lagoons form in micro-tidal environments.

Hapua form in this type of tidal environment as the tidal currents are unable to compete with the powerful freshwater flows of the rivers therefore there is no negligible tidal penetration to the lagoon.

Hapua can act as both a source and sink of sediment.
