Come join Te Kura Moana - Experiencing Marine Reserves to celebrate the estuaries of the Kaipātiki rohe with a free guided kayak, freshwater monitoring workshop and guided walk. Explore the mangroves and learn about the “love zone” for whitebait spawning. Hear about local projects with Neil Henderson from Kaipātiki Project, learn how to monitor your locals streams with Whitebait Connection and get taken on a guided bush walk to talk about local pest trapping initiatives with Pest Free Kaipātiki.
This event provides a taster into kayaking, freshwater monitoring and a short guided walk through a 3hr time slot. Expect to spend ~50mins on the water kayaking.
Fun for the whole whānau – minimum age of 8.
Te Kura Moana - Experiencing Marine Reserves runs a series of free and subsidised events over the summer months - we rely on your support to make them happen. We appreciate donations, either cash/eftpos on the day, online or by giving a koha of your time volunteering at a future event. Some people donate $5-10pp.
Children younger than 8 will not be able to participate in the kayaking. Children aged 8-12 need to have a confident adult in the back of their kayak. Children under 13 need an adult companion.
