A SAFE HAVEN FOR NATIVE WILDLIFE AND THE CLOSEST WILDLIFE SANCTUARY TO PICTON
A community project which aims to restore a 40 hectare 'mainland island' in Picton harbour, Kaipupu Wildlife Sanctuary offers amazing wildlife viewing, engaging school or group visits and volunteering opportunities. Only ten minutes from Picton, the Sanctuary can be accessed by private boat, water taxi or kayak. It is free to visit but donations are greatly appreciated.

Kaipupu Wildlife Sanctuary is used as a creche site for Rowi kiwi. This year we have ten chicks who are learning to live in the wild before being returned to their home in the Okarito forests.
