Waimarino

Waimarino is situated on the banks of the Wairoa River just 10 minutes from Tauranga city. This tranquil paradise is based around the sport of kayaking and over the past 30 years Waimarino has become Tauranga’s premier kayak/canoe location.

Kayak Tours
A kayak tour to the glow-worm canyon is an unforgettable adventure that can be experienced by people of any ability. The Sydney Morning Herald called it “unique and magical”. This is not your average kayaking tour.

Glide over the calm waters with NZ’s only scenic lake and glow worm cave kayak tour. This Scenic Tour will let you experience the quiet lakes’ edge with abundant birdlife before parting the bush to enter the glow worm cave.

The Wairoa River kayak tour allows you to explore the upper reaches of the Wairoa River. No prior experience required for this picturesque flat water paddle to Waimarino. Enjoy the peaceful wildlife as you float past.

We also regularly run a wide variety of other canoe and kayak tours including:
•    Hunting and Fishing Tours
•    Sea Kayak Tours
•    4 Day Adventure Down The Whakatane River
•    Relaxed One Way Kayak Tours
