Paddling in Akaroa on a balmy day through the clouds floating atop the waters and Kelp forest, together with New Zealand dolphins and fairy penguins, under the super chill and knowledgeable guidance of Nick. Big thanks Nick and Akaroa Guided Kayak Tours.

My friend and I went kayaking to celebrate our fiftieth birthdays. The kayaks take two people each, and including us there were six guests, plus our guide, Nick. We had a great time and saw heaps of cool volcanic rock fissures and birds galore. In a couple of places the wind picked up and we had to paddle seriously hard to stick to the coast line, but our trusty guide Nick was on hand to tow anyone that got into trouble. He also told us heaps about the history of Akaroa and recommended a delicious fish and chip shop. We really enjoyed ourselves :)
