Stewart Island/Rakiura is the third-largest island of New Zealand. It lies 30 kilometres (19 mi) south of South Island. Its permanent population is slightly fewer than 400 people. Rakiura is the more commonly known and used Māori name. It is usually translated as Glowing Skies, possibly a reference to the sunsets for which it is famous or for the Aurora Australis, the southern lights that are a phenomenon of southern latitudes. Ulva Island is a small island about 3.5 km long lying within Paterson Inlet, which is part of Stewart Island. It has an area of about 270 hectares, the majority of which is public land. It was named after Ulva Island in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland, and was formerly called Coopers Island. Song: Hoki Hoki Tuna Mai from Kiri te Kanawa of her Album Maori Songs.
You should go there Teokoroa. Rent a small house and enjoy the island. It's so beautiful! Greetings from Bali (just now, I don't live there).
