I have been to several sanctuaries in NZ and this one definitely does not belong to my favourites. It's a nice walk with great views but the birds can be seen in places which are for free as well. At least $40 per person to get to this part of the peninsula as there is no other way even though there is a connection to the mainland? It's just a 10-minute ride! Complete ripp-off!

Top spot to visit. Easy walk, lots of good information on the track about flora and fauna.

Miles of trails available in the sanctuary perfect for running or walking with stunning views of the Sound.

Wonderful trek to spot local birds and marine species while cruising there. Went with E-Ko Tours.

So near and yet so far. Take a Beachcomber taxi trip and then walk the island. Stunning natural bush and walks.

Beautiful wildlife sanctuary predator free. Blue penguin has to boxes, several endemic birds, great views reachable by boat only. Worth a trip. Hiking trail is quite a climb to the top and goes about 2.5 km.

Absolutely and totally not worth it. The price to get to this peninsula (its not an island) is extortionate as you have to get here via boat. You walk around for an hour or so in a circle and then you're done. You dont see any birds that you cant see from the mainland, and as nice as the views could be on a clear day, you seldom find a photo opportunity spot. The track is well maintained so its just about suitable for a baby stroller, but dont be fooled, this is just an hour's walk in the country which you can do for free all across New Zealand, only this one is $40 per person minimum price depending on which boat company you choose. Extortionate. What a rip off!!!!! AVOID!!!
