Rotoiti Mainland Island or Rotoiti Nature Recovery Project is a mainland island in the Tasman District of New Zealand.[1]

It consists of about 5000 hectares of mostly red, silver and mountain beech forest within Nelson Lakes National Park, situated alongside the Kerr Bay camping ground at Lake Rotoiti, which provide a habitat for large numbers of native birds.[2][1]

The area is managed by the Department of Conservation,[2] with support from the Friends of Rotoiti volunteer group.[3] It was established in 1997.[3]
