City Nature Challenge - Taputeranga Rock Pooling

As a part of the City Nature Challenge, we are getting up close and personal to nature with our local nature experts.

We will explore the rock pools and areas around the snorkel trail at Taputeranga marine reserve. Come and discover creatures like sea stars, crabs, fish, seaweed, and maybe even an octopus. Come and listen, come and explore, come and connect to nature.

We will be joined by experts from Mountains to Sea, Te Papa, and NIWA.

Meeting point – Taputeranga Snorkel Trail (Opposite 194 The Esplanade, Island Bay)

Bring – Closed shoes, a sunhat, warm layers, and if you’d like to take part in the City Nature Challenge bring your phone or camera.

This is a whānau friendly event.
