Features

The Hauraki Gulf Marine Park contains a multitude of islands, many of which are protected public lands managed by the Department of Conservation. Most islands are open to the public for recreation and relaxation. Some are sanctuaries for endangered species and to land you must have a permit. Five marine reserves are also included in the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park.
