Start your journey kayaking from Marahau, reaching Onetahuti by the end of the second day. Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the New Zealand forest on day three, with its lush coastal forests, before returning by water taxi from Totaranui.

Retrace your steps on the water taxi on your journey back to Marahau. Trip highlights include not paddling the same coastline twice!, 2 days of kayaking allows plenty of time to explore all the way up the Marine Reserve and the opportunity to walk to the Northern taxi pick up point Totaranui.

Before you depart our base we provide a comprehensive safety briefing with a guide ensuring you are confident. As part of your briefing we focus on pointing out special spots and provide detailed interpretation so you can get the most out of your trip. Once you've completed your briefing, you're free to explore on your own.
