Pakatoa Island

Let your mind get carried away with the thought of what you could do with this beautiful piece of real estate. One of the only privately-owned islands in New Zealand is for sale and able to be purchased by a private owner, syndicate, corporate entity or hotel group.

Situated only 75 minutes by ferry or 15 minutes by helicopter from downtown Auckland, this 24ha island with three white sandy beaches, a wharf capable of landing commercial ferries, and an array of existing buildings has been held in a time warp but is ready for new life. The district plan now allows for five separate private lots to be established, plus the ability to recreate life in the old resort. Pakatoa Island is one of the most beautiful places in Auckland and the Hauraki Gulf.

With its beautiful white sand and crystal-clear water, it really is a subtropical island just waiting for someone, or a group of people, to love it again. Put your thinking caps on and consider how this beautiful place might be re-energised. What could you do with this classic Kiwi asset?
