Somes Island is about 20 minutes out in Wellington Harbour - in its time it has been a POW camp, internment camp and also a quarantine station . Now it is a conservation area and very nice for walks. There were a couple of school parties and a few oldies like us. We could use our gold cards to get there on the ferry which was good. The flowers were beautiful - white ones from the lace bark, hebes and the bright orange berries of the coprosma. We were delighted to see a large tuatara sunning itself conveniently along the way.
