Campbell Island is southeast of Auckland Island and is New Zealand’s southernmost sovereign territory. Campbell island has a cold, cloudy, wet and windy climate. Receiving only 650 hours of bright sunshine annually, Campbell Island became a reserve in 1954. It is now an uninhabited nature reserve and World Heritage site administered by the Department of Conservation. At Campbell Island, visitors can access a boardwalk to the impressive Western cliffs, and look forward to seeing the Royal Albatross.
