Kawau Island

That cute little island is called Beehive Island.  A film was made there that was supposed to be set in Fiji.

There's a really small graveyard on Kawau as well.  This last line of the epitaph is "sleeping with Jesus."  There used to be a school on the island and a bunch of little kids died in a boating accident.  Now very few people live on the island (fewer than 200) and they're mostly retired folks.  You need a boat to get out there and there aren't any shops at all.
