Embark on a serene journey through the clear waters of Goat Island Marine Reserve, a renowned natural haven in New Zealand. As you set out from the beach, guided by the distinctive Pohutukawa tree, the unique experience of paddling in a 100% glass canoe awaits. This transparent Clearyak offers an unobstructed view of the diverse marine life below, making it seem as though you are gliding directly over the ocean's floor.
The journey begins with a brief walk from the parking area at the hilltop down to the water's edge. Here, our friendly staff, easily spotted beneath the sprawling branches of the Pohutukawa, will greet you and provide a brief orientation. This ensures every participant feels confident before setting off on their aquatic adventure.
As you paddle through the reserve, the vivid colors and movements beneath the waves captivate the senses. Schools of fish in hues of silver, blue, and green dart through forests of seaweed, while the occasional curious snapper might come close enough to examine its own reflection in the bottom of your canoe.
This tour not only offers a peek into the thriving underwater ecosystem but also emphasizes conservation and respect for marine life. The clear kayak experience at Goat Island is not just about sightseeing; it’s about appreciating and preserving natural beauty. It’s an ideal activity for nature lovers, families, and anyone looking to enjoy a peaceful day on the water, surrounded by the sounds and sights of the ocean.
