A full day of doing very little! Open Day at Vine House. A gentle paddle to Lagoon Bay, visit the gorgeous Vine House for a BBQ on the deck ( BYO skewers etc.), wander over to Big Bay for a swim in the beautiful clear sea and take part in the annual Auckland Canoe Club Boule on the Beach competition ( BYO boules). More energetic types can paddle out to Saddle Island and beyond. A trolley is a good idea if you have one as the Lagoon Bay beach is wide on a low. Text to 021 162 8798 to indicate your intentions. See you there.

Auckland Canoe Club holds a range of events where we paddle and play together. Some events are just for members, but most are open to all. We encourage you to come along and see what we are about. If you like what you see, join the club!
On this trip I was keen to visit Tarahiki Island, which sits in the Firth of Thames east of Pakatoa. This photo of Tarahiki was taken several weeks earlier, (from Rotoroa Island).
Auckland Canoe Club has been part of the kayaking scene in Auckland since 1954. It has a proud history of helping its members have fun on the water and improve their paddling skills. The club’s main focus is sea kayaking in the waters of Tāmaki Makaurau but occasionally trips are also organised further afield.
Our members are active participants in all types of paddling experiences that get them out on the water, including exploration and camping, social meandering, expeditions, rescue training, rock gardening and surfing. The club offers a variety of events, trips and training sessions and is run by volunteers. The club’s home base is its storage shed on the Ōkahu Bay boat ramp on Tāmaki Drive, Auckland. This facility and the club’s hire fleet are available for members.
