From the ship, a 75-minute transfer south of Tauranga brings you to one of the nine beautiful lakes in the Rotorua District.
Listen to a safety briefing introducing you to your twin kayak before commencing your kayaking excursion.
Paddle your way to explore the lake's coastline, where pohutukawa trees (New Zealand's native Christmas tree) and other native species dominate the vegetation.
You will see classic kiwi "baches" — holiday homes scattered around the lake.
A highlight is exploring the small glow-worm cave (limited to four kayaks at one time), and a dip in a hot spring will finish your day in a relaxing style.
Enjoy a Snack Box at the lake's edge.
Notes:
This tour is strenuous. Wear your swimsuit under your clothing; bring a towel, reef-safe/biodegradable sunscreen, light clothing to act as a full cover-up for further protection from the sun, and a hat. Swim at your own risk. Bring a change of clothing, as you may get wet. Wear shorts (jeans are not allowed). No previous kayaking experience is required, but a very good level of fitness and mobility is needed. Double kayaks are used on this tour. You will be paddling for two hours, sometimes in breezy conditions. Forty-five minutes is spent at the hot pools for an optional swim. Minimum age is 8 years. The smell of sulfur permeates the air in Rotorua and is quite strong. Wear comfortable closed-toe walking shoes (mandatory).
