Adams Island is the second largest island of New Zealand's Auckland Islands archipelago.

Geography

Файл:Auckland islands topo.png
Map of the Auckland Islands, showing Adams Island to the south of the main island.

The southern end of Auckland Island broadens to a width of Шаблон:Convert where a narrow channel, known as Carnley Harbour or the Adams Straits, separates it from the roughly triangular Adams Island (area approximately Шаблон:Convert), which is even more mountainous, reaching a height of Шаблон:Convert at Mount Dick.[1] The channel is the remnant of the crater of an extinct volcano, with Adams Island, and the southern part of Auckland Island forming the crater rim.

Two large indentations, Bolton's Bay and Fly Harbour, are the most prominent features of the island's south coast, both in the south east.

Important Bird Area

The island is part of the Auckland Island group Important Bird Area (IBA), identified as such by BirdLife International because of the significance of the group as a breeding site for several species of seabirds as well as the endemic Auckland shag, Auckland teal, Auckland rail and Auckland snipe.[2]
