A True Kiwi Day on the Water
Beyond the thrill of discovery, The Rock Adventure Day Cruise celebrates simple pleasures—fresh air, laughter, and good food. If the tides allow, you’ll help collect green-lipped mussels straight from the reef and taste kina, a local delicacy that brings the ocean’s flavour to life. It’s hands-on fun with a distinctly Kiwi touch.
On the return to Paihia, the mood turns easy and content as the day winds down. Enjoy steamed mussels, chat with new friends, and keep watch for dolphins dancing in the boat’s wake. By the time you step back onshore around 3pm, you’ll feel the day’s salt and sunshine in every smile—a reminder of why adventures like this are pure New Zealand magic.
