What sets this Waka Ama experience apart is the opportunity to connect with local Māori instructors while learning the basics of paddling and teamwork in a Waka Ama (outrigger canoe). Guests enjoy a welcoming, supportive environment, making it an easy and confidence-building way to cruise the ocean — perfect for those who may be nervous on the water. Along the way, instructors share the history of Waka Ama and voyaging, insights into Māori culture, and the values of caring for the land and sea, creating a personal, meaningful, and culturally rich adventure.
