Motukaramarama Island is one of the Motukawao Islands group lying at the eastern end of the Hauraki Gulf, off the west coast of the Coromandel Peninsula, New Zealand. It lies some 3.5 km off the coast and is uninhabited. It has been identified as an Important Bird Area by BirdLife International because it is a nesting site for about 3500 pairs of Australasian gannets.[1]
