Story

Motutapu es una isla de Nueva Zelanda localizada en el Golfo de Hauraki y adyacente a la isla Rangitoto que surgió durante una erupción volcánica probablemente ocurrida entre los siglos XIII y XIV. Motutapu forma parte del Parque marìtimo del Golfo de Hauraki y en la isla se ha establecido una reserva natural llamada Reserva recreativa Isla Motutapu.La isla estuvo habitada por tribus maoríes durante varios siglos e inclusive hasta el tiempo de la erupción que originó Rangitoto. Ellos llamaban a la isla Te Motutapu a Taikehu, la isla sagrada de Taikehu. En la actualidad existe un gran número de sitios arqueológicos en Motutapu con vestigios de la ocupación maorí.Durante la Segunda guerra mundial, en Motutapu se estableció una base de operaciones que albergaba alrededor de mil efectivos. Algunas de las instalaciones construidas durante la guerra aún se conservan al día de hoy.

An absolute must to visit the beautiful island Motutapu absolutely stunning.
Awesome way to spend one, or a couple of days. Visit the historic Gun emplacement. Go inside the bunkers. You can even camp there in Home Bay. Just be mindful of any potential pests on your boat, as there is some very rear birds.
Went to camp on the island. I have good memories of the walk over
