This two hour Nature Play program is all about fun and adventure, with loads of different activities based on the natural environment of their waterways. They keep the kids active and engaged by switching it up between stand-up paddle boarding, kayaking, snorkelling, creek explorations, outdoor education and fun team challenges.

They make sure everyone gets involved and has a good time, but they’re also fully qualified in activities, safety and first aid procedures.

Thank you dear Eddie! You’re the best Kayak Guide ever! I had my very first kayak experience and it couldn’t have been better! Our guide was absolutely the best anyone could wish for – cool, chillax, kind, respectful, and genuinely friendly. His professionalism and skill made me feel safe and comfortable from start to finish. He shared so much knowledge, guided with patience, and created such a fun, relaxed atmosphere on the water. It was clear he really knows his craft and loves what he does. I came away not only with a great adventure but also with new confidence. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone – whether it’s your first time or your hundredth, you couldn’t ask for a better guide!

Had an amazing time kayaking with Eddie! He’s incredibly knowledgeable about marine and bird life, and such a lovely guy with great chat. The water was calm, the scenery beautiful, and Eddie made sure everyone felt comfortable and had fun. Highly recommend this tour if you’re after a relaxed, enjoyable day out on the water!

We thoroughly enjoyed the experience of snorkelling with turtles with Watersports Guru at the Cook Islands. It was a first time experience for few of us , Cass who was our guide helped us throughout the session to feel right and confident about the experience. Without her we would left the snorkelling even before it began and would have never done it again. Highly recommend this experience even for first-timers.
