Mount Maunganui Kayaking Adventure

Meet your guide at Pilot Bay or Mt. Maunganui Beach in the morning or afternoon, depending on the tides and the time you select at booking. Standing at the entrance to beautiful Tauranga Harbour, the now-extinct volcanic cone of Mauao, or Mt. Maunganui, has greeted visitors ever since the first Polynesians arrived in New Zealand. These days it boasts one of the most popular walking tracks on the North Island.

Everyone from beginners to experts will enjoy this paddling experience as you weave around the rocks, learn some of the local history, and generally cruise along with the current while looking up at beautiful Mt. Maunganui. Search the waters for wildlife such as dolphins, orcas, penguins and seals. Be sure to bring your camera and be prepared to snap away; photos are also emailed to you, free of charge, after the trip.

You will be accompanied by an experienced guide, famous for kayaking around the whole of New Zealand as well as achieving a world record for sea kayaking. He brings a wealth of knowledge, so your 3-hour tour will definitely become a highlight.
