Quarantine Island/Kamau Taurua Community Incorporated

Quarantine Island/Kamau Taurua Island is a public Recreation Reserve and Historic Area jointly managed by the Department of Conservation and the Quarantine Island/Kamau Taurua Community (Inc), a registered charity. The Quarantine Island/Kamau Taurua Community are the kaitiaki (or guardians) of the island. We employ the resident Keeper, who lives on the Island, looking after visitors and managing everything for us. The QIKTC own and manage the buildings, initiate and progress a range of restoration projects, and have the pleasure of welcoming thousands of visitors each year. We host an open day on the last weekend of each month.
