    • Motuihe Island is a small island in the Hauraki gulf that is being restored from farmland back to native bush. The island is one of Aucklands more popular recreation islands and has seen service as everything from a Maori pa site to a naval base, but there is currently no ferry service to the island, so volunteering on a planting day is a way to see somewhere that you wouldn't ordinarily get to. No experience is needed - just enthusiasm, somthing to drink and a little bit of lunch (a sausage in bread is provided for lunch!)

    Plant a tree (winter) or do some nursery work (summer), look at the birdlife, or just chill out on the gorgeous beaches.
