The Kekerengu graticule is at latitude -42, longitude 174. It is almost entirely covered by water. Due to the rarity of land-based hashpoints in this graticule, if a hashpoint ever falls on land, it is recommended that a huge party be thrown, perhaps even if it can't be on the correct date.

Statistics and Facts

No hashpoint has ever fallen on land since the inauguration of Geohashing on 21 May 2008.
Of the 9,135.854 km² the graticule spans, only 0.777 km² (0.0085%) is land. The remaining 9,135.077 km² (99.9915%) is water.
On average, a hashpoint can be expected to fall on land once every 32.2 years. By the same token, Saturday meetups would occur every 225.5 years.
The graticule contains approximately 1.7 km of State Highway , its only major road, and one of only three roads in the graticule (the others being Kekerengu Rd and Sunrise Pl).
