Experience Lake Taupo's fresh clear waters. Explore Lake Taupo's beautiful coastline while learning about the region's incredible volcanic creation and about the area's local history. Lake Taupo has itself experienced at least 26 volcanic eruptions in the last 26 000 years. Two of which were possibly some of the largest the world has experienced in recent geological times.

These Maori Rock Carvings are over 10 metres high (possibly the largest of their type in the world) and are only accessible by boat or kayak. Sea Kayaking will allow you to get up close to the carvings with plenty of time to study their details. Hear about their history, how they were carved, and also about their cultural significance.

Stop for a break on the beach and enjoy some classic kiwi treats such as ANZAC cookies, slice and tea, coffee or Milo (kiwi style of hot chocolate).

There is time for swimming in summer, while in winter there is the opportunity to further explore Mine Bay before our return paddle home.
