Waiheke Island is one of more than 50 islands in the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park. We need your help to protect this treasured island and make it pest-free.

Before your stay at the hostel:

check your gear and footwear for stowaway pests like rats, mice, plague skinks and Argentine ants
clean your gear and footwear to remove soil and seeds. This will help prevent the spread of weeds and plant diseases such as Kauri dieback
