Kapiti has been in our blood for eight generations. Since our arrival here in 1820, our whānau (family) have warmly welcomed visitors to the island and shared this unique experience with them. Kapiti Island is one of New Zealand's oldest and most important nature reserves, and a place rich in human history. We take our responsibility as kaitiaki (guardians) very seriously and are passionate about preserving our taonga (natural and cultural) for generations to come. Explore Kapiti Island’s natural and cultural heritage and discover why our island is so significant in the history of the region.
