Support the Island

QI/KT Community Membership – $20/individual and $40/family

A membership is a wonderful way to support and care for Kamautaurua/ Quarantine Island. The Island’s historic buildings, native plantings, biodiversity monitoring and pest control are funded by philanthropic donations and memberships. Projects succeed because of the support we receive from you!

Please complete the membership form here to become a member and make your payment via the bank details below. A membership (individual $20 and family $40) includes two nights free* accommodation in the St. Martin Lodge on any of our Welcome Days. Adults may also vote in the QIKT Community AGM and you also receive a subscription to our monthly newsletter for news and upcoming island events.

*Terms and Conditions: The 2 nights free accommodation is valid on QI/KT Community Welcome Day weekends only (held on the third weekend of each month). It can be applied to the Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights of that weekend. See our website for more details on Welcome Days. Boat transfers to the island are not included in memberships. Children under 5 at the time of family membership purchase are free. Family memberships may include a maximum of 2 adults (over the age of 18). The 2 free nights accommodation for family memberships must be applied as a group and cannot be claimed individually.

Donations – $5 per person

100% of the $5 minimum donation (per person who visits the island) goes a long way to maintaining and restoring this sanctuary in the middle of Otago Harbour. You can pay this directly to us when you board the boat, or before you come over via our bank account:
