As a Department of Conservation refuge, the 65 Ha Island is home to many species of birds that are hard to see elsewhere in NZ. Native Wood Pigeon, South Island Tomtit, Brown Creepers, Grey Warblers and Rifleman are just some of the species you may encounter.
The island is also an inspiration for photographers - shaped by eons of winds that funnel down the arm, rock and twisted trunks meld into a patina of nature’s finest backdrops.
