Overview

Wildlife in Pohatu awaits with opportunities for kayaking, hiking, and an evening tour to watch the penguins. The day begins with a scenic ride to Pohatu, featuring multiple photo stops and informative insights from the experienced guide.

  • 🛶 After arriving in the bay, enjoy a kayaking trip where you may spot fur seals, dolphins, penguins, and various sea birds.
  • 🕒 Free time is available post-kayaking until the evening tour starts; relax or use the shower and kitchen facilities to prepare your dinner.
  • 🌲 Alternatively, explore some walking tracks through the ancient forest during your free time.
  • 🌅 In the evening, hike with your knowledgeable guide to observe penguins socializing in the water from above; this experience is designed to minimize disturbance during penguin hour.
  • ⚠️ Departure before dark is essential to avoid disturbing the penguins as they come ashore just before nightfall.
