Blumine Island/Ōruawairua Campsite sits on a north-facing seafront within the Blumine Island Scenic Reserve, located in the outer reaches of Queen Charlotte Sound about 22 kilometres north of Picton.

The island is accessible by boat or kayak only, and bookings are required year-round through DOC. Fires are not permitted at any time. The campsite offers six unpowered sites on a pest-free island renowned for its wildlife.

Visitors can expect to hear kiwi calls at night and a rich dawn chorus throughout the day. A one-hour walk each way leads to historic World War II gun emplacements, offering both a slice of wartime history and sweeping views across the Marlborough Sounds.

Campers are asked to check, clean, and seal all gear before arrival to protect the island's biosecurity.
