What to Know About Chatham Islands

Key Facts

The Chatham Islands are a remote archipelago and the easternmost territory of New Zealand, located approximately 800 kilometers east of the South Island in the South Pacific Ocean. This island group serves as a distinct territorial authority within New Zealand's administrative structure, functioning much like a region but with unique governance arrangements. The archipelago consists of about ten islands, with the two main inhabited islands being Chatham Island (Rēkohu in Moriori, Wharekauri in Māori) and Pitt Island (Rangiaotea). Covering a total land area of approximately 966 square kilometers, the islands are home to a small population of around 600 residents as of recent estimates. The Chatham Islands are not divided into multiple municipalities or districts but operate as a single territorial unit with local administration based in Waitangi, the main settlement on Chatham Island. Known for their unique biodiversity and distinct Moriori and Māori cultural heritage, these windswept islands represent New Zealand's most isolated inhabited territory.
