Our boat takes you to the best locations & makes kayaking / paddle boarding easy!
We cruise for around 30 minutes along our local island coastline & 3km up a meandering river that in days gone by sailing ships loaded Kauri logs. Guests transfer to kayaks to explore up close, paddle through mangrove forests or photograph seabirds feeding their nesting babies in trees hanging over the river. Our final destination is where a waterfall drops into the sea & if you dare, paddle up to or under the waterfall.

Share LinkGreat afternoon
Thanks Ruby and Dan for an amazing kayaking afternoon. We travelled from Queenstown and was nice to feel the summer! They gave us a lot of advises to do the following days.

I lived that tour. My partner and I had so much fun kayaking and the guide, Ben, was super patient and fun. Would do it again.

Share LinkSoooo Good!
What a highlight of our trip. We were lucky enough to have a small group on our booking. The guys were so informative and friendly. Their local knowledge and enthusiasm was infectious. Well done, keep up the good work, will see you again. p.s take the photo package, they captured our experience perfectly.

Share LinkAwesome!!
My family and I had an awesome morning cruising and kayaking along the river to Haruru Falls. Tour guides Ace and Dan were fantastic; well educated, very knowledgable, enthusiastic and friendly. Good value for money. Would highly recommend this trip if you are in Paihia!
