This was a great little kayak, we started from the bottom of Lorenzen bay, with our kayaks rented from JD of Raglan Adventures https://www.raglanadventures.co.nz
They charge $60 for a double and $40 for a single for all day hire. JD, the owner of the busiess was super helpful and gave us a map to find the falls and lifejacket, kayak and paddle.
The paddle there was easy as we had wind and tide on our side.
When we got to the waterfall we had a coffee and a snack and the sun was out so we had a wee sunbathe.
The way back was harder as we had the wind against us.
We left two hours before high tide so we had the tide with us on the way back. Definitely max wind is 20kts, as anything higher makes it super hard to paddle.
Overall we loved it, as doing new things is a great way to enjoy the day and also I love waterfalls and exploring. When we got home we were cold, so we hopped in the spa to warm up and enjoy a cider.
We plan to do this on again soon so if you want to join us just go to here to register
