Habitat for Species Protection

South Island’s largest fenced sanctuary for native wildlife.

Our vision is to be a thriving predator-free eco-sanctuary

where native species flourish and people are inspired by nature. 

The Brook Waimārama Sanctuary is a community-led conservation project based in Nelson, New Zealand. As the South Island’s largest pest-proof fenced sanctuary, we provide a safe haven for rare and endangered native species to recover and thrive. Alongside ecological restoration, we engage and inspire visitors, schools, and volunteers to connect with and care for Aotearoa’s natural heritage.
