Itinerary

At the launch area in Deep Water Basin, a complete set of paddling gear is issued including thermals, fleece, paddle jacket as well as a water proof camera bag. After a comprehensive safety briefing and paddling instruction, travellers kayak from Deep Water Basin to the inner part of Milford Sound.

With an experienced guide and small group of kayakers, they’ll explore the spectacular Bowen Falls. Getting up close to Sinbad Gully, the valley of New Zealand's most photographed mountain of Mitre Peak, they’ll learn about the Sinbad Sanctuary Project and the special native wildlife that make this area their home. They paddle along the shoreline to view the rainforest in beautiful detail. 2-2.5 hours of kayaking is involved in this relaxing morning paddle. Then join the Go Orange boat cruise out to the Tasman Sea and return.
