Ripapa Island (Māori: Rīpapa), also known earlier as Ripa Island, located just off the shore of Lyttelton Harbour, has played many roles in the history of New Zealand. A Māori fortified pā there played a key role in an internal struggle for the South Island Ngāi Tahu tribe in the early 19th century. Between 1873 and 1885, the island hosted a quarantine station, which was also used as a temporary prison for members of the Parihaka Māori settlement in Taranaki. Fort Jervois was built in 1886 as part of system of defences against a feared Russian invasion. The fort was in military use until the end of World War I, and again during World War II. It is the most complete Russian-scare fort still existing in New Zealand.

  • La isla Ripapa (en inglés: Ripapa Island también conocida localmente como isla Ripa) se encuentra junto a la orilla de Lyttelton Harbour (Whakaraupo) y ha desempeñado muchos papeles en la historia de Nueva Zelanda.​​ La isla inicialmente jugó un papel clave en una lucha interna de la tribu sureña de Ngai Tahu en el siglo XIX. En ese mismo siglo la isla fue utilizada como una estación de cuarentena por los buques que llegaban de Gran Bretaña, aunque también en 1880 se usó como una prisión. (es)
