Moturiki island located in Tauranga is one of the most accessible island in New Zealand.  It is connected to Mount Maunganuui's main beach by a man-made land bridge.  The walkway is flat and easy, it took only 10 minutes to reach the end of the track.


这里的历史丰富
曾是毛利部落居住的地方
1900年代初又成了采石场
之后则改为娱乐用途
1966年开了水族馆
15年后又改建成了之后大为人知的“休闲岛”
有游泳池、水上滑梯和高尔夫球场等
直到1990年关闭

The island is full of history, it used to be inhabited by Maori settlers, and later established as a quarry in early 1900s.  It was later being used for tourist attractions.  In the beginning an aquarium was built in 1966 fifteen years later it was replaced by another venture and it is still known until today as the "Leisure Island". There are large pools for swimming, waterslide and golf course and it operated until 1990.


现今一群志工与陶朗加市议会
着力于回复小岛原有的面貌
许多游客纷纷到此一游
步道的尽头是海天一色的美景
回望既是沙滩与毛奥山

Recent year volunteers and the staffs from Tauranga City Council are working on to revert the island back to its natural state and it continues to attract a steady stream of people.  The end of the track offer a spectacularly shoots water skyward and enjoy the view back towards the beach and Mauao.


这里沙滩也可捕捉鲍鱼、海胆、蚌
但切记需遵守规定
不可过度捕捉
附近也有许多档口
在大热天不妨来个冰淇淋解暑

Visitors are also able to collect paua, kina and mussel at the beach but the daily limit must be strictly followed.  There are also a lot of stalls nearby, why don't have an ice cream at the hot weather.
