Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.Great Barrier Island is a large island of New Zealand, situated 100 kilometres to the north-east of central Auckland in the outer Hauraki Gulf. With an area of 285 square kilometres it is the fourth-largest island of New Zealand's main chain of islands, with its highest point, Mount Hobson, rising 621 metres. Note that, despite its name, The Barrier is not a true Barrier Island. The remote island was initially exploited for its minerals and kauri trees and saw only some limited agriculture. It is now inhabited by a small population of 852 people, mostly living from farming and tourism. The majority of the diverse environments of the island is administered as nature reserve by the New Zealand Department of Conservation, with the local authority being the Auckland City Council. Recently, the island atmosphere has been described as being "life in New Zealand many decades back", not without some positive emphasis. The island received its European name from Captain Cook because it acts as a barrier between the Pacific Ocean and Gulf. For centuries, the indigenous Mori have called it Motu Aotea, meaning in the Mori language.
