Tahuna Torea Kayak Day
Date and time
Come join us to celebrate World Fish Migration Day with a free guided kayak, wetland walk and raranga - weaving workshop.
About this event
Explore the mangroves and sandspit of Tahuna Torea at the entrance to the Tāmaki River by kayak. Learn about raranga – weaving harakeke through Para Kore Ki Tāmaki. Explore the wetland and learn about the migrations of our native freshwater fish with Whitebait Connection. More about World Fish Migration Day can be found here.
This event provides a taster into kayaking, raranga and a short guided walk - expect to spend ~50mins on the water kayaking. Fun for the whole whanau – 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. Children aged 8-12 need to have a confident adult in the back of their kayak. Children under 13 need an adult companion. Max weight of 120kg for kayaking - if you wish to attend the landbased activities please contact auckland@emr.org.nz
