Sea Kayaking in the Marlborough Sounds
The intricate waterways of the Marlborough Sounds are a wonderland for sea kayakers. The Marlborough Sounds comprises of 1500km of New Zealand’s coastline, so finding a corner to call your own in is not difficult. The water here can display a dazzling display of colours in a thousand shades – ranging from the brightest turquoise to the deepest verdigris. The forrested backdrop contains a myriad of shades of green from the overhanging native tree ferns, rata vines and beech trees. The wildlife is testimony to the good health of this magnificent environment, with seals, dolphins and penguins a common sight. The Marlborough Sounds is just waiting to be explored and there is no way to this better than by sea kayak.
Guided trips
Just as our kayaks were designed for voyaging so we try to create a sense of journey on our guided trips. These trips are purposely designed to maximise your experience in the Sounds, so whether it be three hours or three days to spare, we make sure that you visit the most scenic areas of the Sounds in the timeframe that is available to you. We pay particular attention to the small things such as delicious meals, fun and informative guides, quality equipment and itineraries that do our utmost to maximise your time on the water. If your time is limited, then a guided adventure is your best option.
Independent Rental
If you have more time to spare and really want to explore the Sounds independently, then independent rental is the ideal option for you. Please note that you’ll need a paddling buddy as, for safety reasons, we are unable to hire to solo paddlers.
Our large, stable, purpose-built, fibreglass doubles and plastic single kayaks are ideal for a multi-day kayak rental. They have large storage capacity and it is not a problem to pack a boat for three or four days and really get out into the Sounds and explore the watery wonderland of inlets, bays and coves.
With all of our kayak rentals, we provide a full safety briefing, and during which we discuss with you itinerary planning, weather, techniques (for paddling, capsize and re-entry) and so on. If you are unsure whether your paddling experience is enough to take a rental out for a few days, then we may suggest that you take our Beginners Package – which includes the guided day trip and then followed by your multi-day rental.
