About

Paratahi Island is an island on the west coast of the Auckland Region, New Zealand, located at Karekare. By the late 1990s, northward moving sand dunes had linked the island to the mainland. Paratahi Island is a nesting spot for white-fronted terns, red-billed gulls and a location where New Zealand fur seals are known to visit.
