With its rugged landscape, untouched wilderness and stunning coastline, Great Barrier Island in New Zealand’s Hauraki Gulf is truly a world of its own.

The east coast of the island is known for its white sand beaches and world famous surf breaks, while the west features secluded bays home to some of New Zealand’s best diving and fishing spots in New Zealand. In between lies a diverse landscape – from rugged hill country to wetlands to kauri forests – marked by gravel roads and homes of the island’s 900 residents.

With communities across the island, including Tryphena, Medlands, Okupu, Whangaparapara, Port Fitzroy, Claris and Kaitoke – visiting is like taking a wonderful step back in time, with no traffic lights, very few shops and only the sound of native birdsong.

It’s this seclusion and breathtaking scenery that make it an attractive destination for tourists, holidaymakers and those seeking a refuge from the hustle and bustle of the city – which is a mere two hours’ away by ferry, or 30 minutes by plane.

With such a unique market, you need a dedicated real estate professional on the ground with their finger on the pulse.

That’s where Ray White comes in: Chris Knight is the only full-time resident agent on the island.

Armed with decades of vast local knowledge, proven sale results and a true understanding of the value of Great Barrier properties – Chris is not only good at what he does; he enjoys it. And he has a strong belief that buying or selling real estate should be a fun, hassle-free experience you can enjoy too.

“From beaches to sheltered bays and steep forest-covered hills to mangrove estuaries, the Barrier has a diverse landscape, and whether you’re looking to relax or take advantage of some of the world’s best fishing and diving, this is the place to be,” says Chris.

Ray White Great Barrier Real Estate offers a wide selection of property for sale on Great Barrier and the surrounding islands, he says.
