You will be kayaking approx 1 hour each way with informative stops and interpretation along the way. Total time of this trip is approx 5 hours (including a BBQ dinner!)
Located to the south of Rangitoto Island and Motutapu Island, Browns Island provides gorgeous views back towards the city. Best of all, because you’ll be the only ones there, you get to explore, hike, relax and enjoy the stunning scenery that Hauraki Gulf Marine Park is so well known for.
