New Zealand - Puhoi River - Kayak - 14 January 2010

On the way to Piha, we stopped at Puhoi for kayaking down the Puhoi River. We picked up our kayaks and paddled and drifted down the river past farmlands, mangroves, piers and bridges. It was all very pretty. In the last section, the river widens considerable and the water colour changed from murky to blue. A van picked us up at a designated spot and returned us and the kayaks to base.

After that we had lunch at the Puhoi Hotel which was cramped full with memorabillia. The town is excellent to wander around.
