Black Water Rafting

Black Water Rafting could better be described as Underworld rafting – a superb 4 hour adventure in the enormous Nile River Cave in the Paparoa National Park. We equip you with wetsuits, booties, gloves and a helmet, pack you on the Nile River Rainforest train for travel through the primeval rain forest and towering limestone cliffs of the Nile River Canyon. Once in the cave system, we float through awe inspiring glow worm grottos using the natural lights of the glow worms as a navigational aid. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience!

Swimming with Dolphins & Snorkelling

The dusky dolphins inhabit the coastal waters of the Marlborough Sounds. You can choose to get in the water and swim with the dolphins, or remain on the boat and watch the dolphins and witness any interaction between the dolphins and swimmers. You are sometimes lucky enough to see other marine mammals such as Orca (Killer Whales), Pilot Whales, New Zealand Fur Seals, and Hector’s Dolphins.
