Kayak outing on Okarito lagoon. Southern Alps in the background.
We paddled about three hours, following a marked trail into narrower areas. First half was easy and fun as we looked for birds and saw a couple of white herons; return was hard work as the tide had turned!
New Zealanders are proactive about protecting their environment. Insect repellent was provided - no DEET allowed! It was our first encounter with the dreaded sand flies.
