Kapiti Island – A Bird
Sanctuary
Most people never get an opportunity to visit nature
reserves because access to them are so difficult.
Kapiti Island is unusual because it is one of the
few relatively accessible island nature reserves.
Kapiti Island lies about 5km off the west coast of
the southern North Island.
Here, you may observe birds that are either very
rare or absent from the Mainland, such as kakariki
(red-crowned parakeet), robin, bellbird, saddleback,
the little spotted kiwi thrives. |

buskers, musicians, DJ’s, food stalls, craft stalls,
community action booths, all celebrating the
diversity that is Cuba Street. |
