If you love to be active while exploring beautiful places, take advantage of this unusual opportunity to paddle in an extinct, sea-flooded volcanic crater which is now a stunning nature and conservation reserve.
Suitable for all levels of prior kayaking experience (including none), this sea kayak safari is a chance to explore some of the 17 square miles of the coves, caves and bays of Akaroa Harbour's eco-paradise. Your knowledgeable local guide will share information about the area's history and any wildlife you may come across, and upon your return to Akaroa, you'll have plenty of free time to stretch your sea legs and explore this charming little French-style town on your own.
Please note:
Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable/reef-safe sunscreen. Bring bottled water & a towel. Participants must be able to get into and out of the kayak unassisted. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed. Minimum age is 12 years. Maximum weight is 100kg/ 220lbs.
