General Information



Located in the Waitemata Harbour Pakatoa is approximately 32 kilometres from Auckland City. It is one of the very few islands privately owned in the Hauraki Gulf as most islands are held by the Crown as reserve and park land. The island was developed as a resort destination in the 1950s and now offers the opportunity to redevelop its tourism potential or provide an exclusive piece of commercial usable water-related land in New Zealand.

This offering therefore represents a rare opportunity to acquire an exclusive piece of real estate in New Zealand.





Property Description



The island provides in excess of 24 hectares of undulating land rising from the sea level to a high point of approximately 56 metres. Pakatoa Island is endowed with two attractive beaches on the east coast and one to the north adjacent to the existing wharf facilities. At least one of these beaches is sheltered at all times due to the position of the island, which has a generally northerly aspect. The predominance of buildings currently on site are located to the lower northern part of the island with the chalets constructed on the high ground and open grassland occupying the southern half of the island. The island is extensively landscaped with large stands of native and pine trees, various types of palms and large open areas of grassland. Marine access to the island is serviced by a substantial modern wharf jetty and the island is serviced by a sealed road system.
