Nature
The island is uninhabited and falls partially within the protected areas of Rakiura National Park [2]. It features dense forests of podocarps and other native trees, along with shrubs such as mānuka, and is surrounded by rocky coasts and marine waters rich in wildlife. The surrounding terrestrial and marine environment provides habitats for rare bird species, including kiwi and yellow-eyed penguins, making the island an important site for biodiversity conservation [3].
