Stevensons Island (Te Peka Karara) is a small 65-hectare (160-acre) island in the Stevensons Arm section of Lake Wānaka, New Zealand.[1] There are two small islets close to the south end of the island.

Buff weka were introduced to Stevensons Island in 2002 from the Chatham Islands.[2] In 2009 they were removed due to a rabbit outbreak that attracted predators which killed four birds. They were then reintroduced in 2013.[3]
