Fiona and I co-managed a restoration project for the new owner of Slipper Island off the east coast of the Coromandel Peninsula. Stage 1 included overseeing a major cleanup and facelift of existing facilities on the island and adding two South African Safari Glamping tents to the accommodation inventory. The island was re-branded as an eco-tourism destination to leverage off the eco-restoration project proposed for the island. Stage 2 working closely with Waikato Regional Council, DoC and local Iwi in planning a full eco-restoration project for the island including an extensive wetland restoration, predator eradication and planting programmes with the ultimate goal being the release of endangered species onto the island.
So it sounds like the islands been going through some renovations.Article also says the good old fashioned camping at south bay is still open to the public.No contact that i could find though of any type.
I assume the water taxi from tairua would have contact details ?
