Join one of the best kayak adventures in New Zealand, jump into a safe stable NZ made sea kayak and follow our local guides as we take you on a spectacular tour through an untouched marine reserve which now exists in a flooded volcanic crater from millions of years ago. The geology and scenery will blow your mind during this intimate sea-kayaking safari. Paddle along through the clear turqouise waters of the pacific, you get the feeling you are in a postcard!  Your guide will keep watch for sightings of native New Zealand marine and bird life including Hector dolphins, white flippered penguins and NZ fur seals. Did we mention this is a bird watching paradise? We travel in small groups to ensure we have zero impact on the environment. You can rest easy knowing you have booked the most environmentally sensitive tour in the harbour. Soak up the serenity of this little slice of paradise and this activity is often voted the highlight of a NZ holiday!

The guide James was awesome, however the website did say three hours with lunch at a beach so suggest the company adjusts their advertising for this activity

James was our guide, very knowledgeable about birds, Maori history, geology + the bush. A wonderful trip despite the rain.

Super kayak tour met een hele leuke gids. Begripvol voor mijn mindere mobiliteit vanwege 2 kunstknieën. Alle tijd om in en uit de kano te komen. Pinguïns gezien echt zo gaaf! Wij hadden wel heel mooi weer 30 graden en spiegelglad water
