Rotoroa Island Corporate Volunteer Days

Come help us look after Rotoroa Island's natural heritage! It’s a chance to get your team out into the Hauraki Gulf for a great day and contribute to a special restoration project.

Corporate or group volunteer days are available between 1 March and 30 September each year. These days are limited because summer is busy with visitors, and we have reduced supervision capacity on the island during this time.

Volunteers are a valued part of maintaining the island’s visitor and natural assets. You need to be physically fit and prepared to walk around the island, as this is how you will reach the tasks for the day. We do not have vehicles for transporting people.

Transport to Rotoroa Island:

• There is a 50% discount available for eligible volunteer groups on the daily ferry with Explore Group.
• Alternatively, you may wish to charter a boat with Explore, which offers a discounted rate for volunteer groups under 55 people using one of their smaller boats. Lunch can also be provided with this charter service. More information on this catering service here.
• Please speak to Explore about which option may suit you best when you book.

Important Information

• Group size: Minimum 10 people, maximum 30 (with notice, we can sometimes accommodate larger groups).
