Papakura Paddle 2022 facebook

Come join us for a free guided kayak through the mangrove forests of the Manukau Harbour, winding through the Pahurehure Inlet. Spot native birds and see the Manukau Harbour from a different perspective. This event is a taster into kayaking - expect to spend ~50mins on the water. Fun for the whole whānau. We will have landbased activities of a raranga - weaving workshop (registrations essential - details below) and a freshwater education stall. Sea conditions permitting - we will run with light rain.
 
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.
