Live updates have now ended.
4:55pm - Harry and Meghan are heading back to Wellington, where they'll meet some orcs at Courtenay Creative. They're attending an event celebrating the creative arts and, as well as orcs, will meet with young people involved in props, make-up, music and costuming.
4:30pm - Auckland Transport has encouraged the city's royalists to walk or bus rather than drive to see Harry and Meghan at Karanga Plaza, Wynyard Quarter tomorrow.
4:15pm - More present news! Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says she gave Meghan some Boh Runga 'feather' earrings. These ones maybe? Or these? Perhaps these? Harry, meanwhile, received a Shapeshifter CD: 2009's 'The System is a Vampire'.
4:00pm - Another post from the official Kensington Palace Twitter account about Harry and Meghan's beach walk in which they learned about local conservation programmes.
3:50pm - Before hopping back in the helicopter, Harry and Meghan are being presented with more gifts, including a shawl for the baby. They've also been given a painting of three tuis symbolising the couple and their child, which was painted by Takaka artist Robin Slow.
3:40pm - When Harry and Meghan arrive in Auckland tomorrow, they'll receive gifts from the council for their baby.
Mayor Phil Goff says he's expecting a good turnout for the couple's walk around Karanga Plaza and the Viaduct area.
"We are looking forward to welcoming the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and taking advantage of the coverage of their visit by the world media to showcase our city."
Council staff have knitted some baby clothes and the parents-to-be will also be presented with two children's books to commemmorate their visit.
The books are Diane Newcombe's A is for Auckland and A is for Aotearoa. I'd have gone with Hairy Maclary or maybe The Boy with Two Shadows, but I suppose Phil has a tourism agenda to push.
3:20pm - The rain is showing no signs of easing up, but that hasn't stopped Harry and Meghan from enjoying the local culture.
They've heard speeches in Te Reo, translated for them on the go, as well as some stiring waiata.
2:35pm - Details have emerged of what Harry and Meghan got up to in Abel Tasman National Park.
Amid rainfall, they landed by helicopter on Totaranui Beach where they were welcomed by a traditional pōwhiri from local iwi.
Speaking from a marquee, local kaumatua Barney Thomas wished the parents-to-be luck with their 'pepi', which Meghan reportedly smiled at when the word was translated for her.
As is traditional marae protocol, Meghan's chair was set a few inches back from her husband's, although she was seated in the front row.
"We want to be inclusive but especially Meghan, because she's expecting, we don't want to put her at any risk," Mr Thomas explained.
After a waiata Harry spoke to the group, thanking them for their hospitality.
"From my wife, myself and our little bump, it's a blessing to be here," he said. "We bring you greetings from my grandmother."
The couple then braved the rain and joined a DoC ranger for a beach walk, sheltering under a shared umbrella. Harry and Meghan were treated to the sight of a weka before they returned to the marquee for tea and brownies. These two can't get enough tea!
1:40pm - Kensington Palace has acknowledged 20-year-old Ezekiel Raui, a mental health advocate who spoke with Harry and Meghan at Maranui Café this morning.
1:15pm - Due to poor cell reception at Abel Tasman, we likely won't hear anything about what the royals are up to until later in the afternoon.
In the meantime, you can read more about the young chap from Houghton Valley School who couldn't bring himself to shake Meghan's hand.

Speculation as to how she keeps injuring her fingers is rife on social media. Theories include Satanic rituals and banana bread-induced burns. You be the judge.
11:25am - Extremely important update about that plate of delicious baked goods! Meghan sent the slices, muffins and biscuits (which look just about untouched) to the kids waiting outside the café so they could have their own morning tea. They look extremely pleased with the spread.
11:15am - If you like Meghan's outfit today, you're in luck. Popular Twitter account 'What Meghan Wore' has compiled a guide to her casual Wellington chic, with links to the exact garments she's wearing so you can copy her exact look.
That is, if you're prepared to shell out NZ$1071 for a pair of Stuart Weitzman boots.
10:55am - The couple's back in the car and the motorcade is slowly driving away as kids chant 'Harry, Meghan'.
10:50am - Harry and Meghan have walked out and are now greeting a group of kids gathered at the café entrance. They could learn a thing or two about sun safety from the children, who are all wearing their hats.
One child seems to be suffering stage fright and is refusing to shake Meghan's hand. Either that, or he's a staunch republican.
10:45am - Mary is an au pair from the US who is offering her childcare services for the royal baby, which is due in spring (our autumn) 2019.
"They need an American influence, for sure."
10:40am - A group of self-confessed royalists are waiting outside the café, hoping for a handshake "or even a little kiss on the cheek".
"From Harry, that is. Not Meghan."
10:35pm - In a startlingly unrelatable move, Meghan ordered a cup of tea while Harry is content drinking water. No double-shot flat whites for these two, they've got enough natural energy to get them through another busy day.

They're both still wearing their poppies.
