Set out on an unforgettable kayaking journey along the outer coast of the Pōhatu Marine Reserve, where dramatic natural scenery unfolds at every turn. Paddle beneath towering coastal cliffs and past rugged rock stacks, vibrant reefs, and impressive deep sea caves shaped by the power of the ocean over time. In calm and settled sea conditions, the experience is enhanced with a visit to Flea Bay Island, where a striking natural island arch creates a truly memorable highlight and offers excellent opportunities to appreciate the raw beauty of this protected marine environment.

Beyond the stunning landscapes, this adventure provides exceptional chances to observe the rich wildlife that calls this coastline home. Watch for penguins swimming nearby, seals resting on rocky outcrops, and a variety of seabirds soaring above the water, while those especially fortunate may glimpse the rare Hector’s dolphin, known as the world’s smallest dolphin. No previous kayaking experience is required, making this tour accessible to beginners and nature lovers alike. All trips are conducted only in safe, settled conditions and are led by experienced, knowledgeable guides who place your safety and enjoyment above all else.
