Sea Kayak Tour
Explore the wildlife surrounding the Tauranga Harbour in the comfort of a sea kayak. Paddle past old Maori pa sites above the majestic white cliffs of Motuhoa Island. See the sights of Te Puna as you explore the waterways developed by the old Maori taniwha Te Pura and Poripori.
Wow ! I didn't realise it was that far. Everybody had such a great time we should make it an annual event :-)
