Cruise from Kaiteriteri through Tonga Island Marine Reserve to reach Awaroa, a fascinating inlet that has inspired generations of settlement and protection.
At Awaroa you have 3 options for lunch
- Cafe style lunch at the Awaroa Lodge. This property is not operated by us, and is closed during the low season. Bookings are essential.
- Order a scrumptious picnic lunch from us the day before you travel
- Take your own picnic to enjoy on the beach
Awaroa Beach is exposed to prevailing winds. When the Awaroa Lodge is closed, Anchorage or Bark Bay are recommended for picnic lunch stops.
For a more active day, book the Pioneer Trail (2 hour walk) or Pioneer Trail Plus (4 hour walk available 20 December - 10 January).
If you are staying in Golden Bay or Totaranui, go to Totaranui Dine & Stride for Awaroa options.
