Rotoroa Island is 82ha in area and lies east of Waiheke Island. With Ponui Island to the south and Pakatoa Island to the north, Rotoroa forms the eastern border of the Waiheke Channel.

Rotoroa is famous for its privately-owned alcohol and drug rehabilitation centre for men at Home Bay. The island was first bought by the Salvation Army in 1908 for that purpose. The facility was closed in 2005.
