So much fun!
We loved our experience, the kayaks were amazing - so cool to see everything swimming by underneath us. We were lucky enough to also see sting rays!

Visit Goat Island!
A visit to Goat Island is a must do if you're in the area; either on the transparent kayak or snorkeling (haven't done the glass bottom boat so can't comment on this). We had a mostly clear day, however when the clouds came over visibility was impacted in the kayak. Great team of people, who create an awesome atmosphere. Can get quite busy but this just adds to the 'good time' vibe. Absolutely recommend.
From Transparent Kayak rental in Goat Island
Thanks so much for the awesome review! 🙌 We're thrilled you had an amazing Goat Island adventure in our kayaks, despite the cloudy weather. It's great our team created that fun, lively atmosphere you enjoyed. 😊 Means a lot to hear you'd recommend Clearyak - I'll pass your kind words to the whole team, they'll be stoked! 🤩 Can't wait to welcome you back for more water fun soon! 🤙🛶

A disappointing experience
I was expecting to be able to kayak in a kayak that was actually stable (I own a double kayak myself) and didn’t expect to be limited to a very small area in which we were allowed to go. This was a very disappointing experience and I definitely would not recommend it. It was a complete waste of money.
From Transparent Kayak rental in Goat Island
I'm truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience. Our kayaks can feel a bit like canoes, which might take some getting used to. They’re very stable, though they may feel tippy at first—extending your legs straight out can help with balance. I checked the weather for your trip, and it seems we would've offered the largest paddling area possible that day. We aim for a relaxed, exploratory paddle rather than a long-distance journey, which might have felt different from what you expected. We’re proud of the many positive reviews we’ve received on platforms like TripAdvisor and Google, where customers often highlight the unique beauty of our routes and the care of our team. I see you're from the US which suggested you were just visiting, I hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in NZ despite your experience with us. All the best

Great fun
Loved being able to look through the boat, especially at the kelp forests. It was only a small area that we could kayak in so a lot of time to try to catch the rays etc. People were friendly and lots of walk up rentals too.
