Dragon Island is a privately owned island off the northeast coast of New Zealand's Great Barrier Island. It is located 95 kilometres (59 mi) to the northeast of Auckland.

The island provides Harataonga Bay on Great Barrier Island with shelter from easterly and southeasterly winds by blocking the bay from Pacific storms. The island is in relatively calm water, sheltered by the larger Rakitu Island to the north. the island was once farmed but has now reverted to scrub.
