Gulf News is Waiheke's iconic newspaper, published on the island since 1973. An audited member of the New Zealand Community Newspapers Association, the award-winning weekly has been through the highs and lows of community publishing, including a spell of printing on a barge at sea when local government rules temporarily forced it off-shore. Owned and published by longstanding Waiheke journalist Liz Waters, its current editor is Simon Johnston.

Well known New Zealand journalists to have worked at Gulf News include Tom Frewen, Vicki Jayne and Jim Eagles, who owned the paper for a period.
