Walking The Islands Made Accessible And Affordable
Walking New Zealand|August 2017

The Bay of Islands Walking Weekend has a huge variety of walks.

Walking The Islands Made Accessible And Affordable

We walk many of the islands and remote spots on the peninsula that are hard to access as individuals – the walking weekend makes it affordable and accessible. These walks are spectacular with breath taking scenery, amazing flora and fauna.

This is a must do all-time favourite for walkers on the weekend – the Moturua and Motuarohia Island Walk. Travel aboard the R Tucker Thompson, which is a total experience in itself – this amazing olde tall ship with its fantastic crew is a real treat and a perfect way to travel to your destination in the Bay of Islands.

Sail past the spot where Captain Cook anchored in 1769 just before we land barefooted on Motuarohia Island. Walk and talk - hearing some history of Cook, the firing of a canon and the theft of kumara from the locals. Learn of the ghastly murder of the whole family of Robertons who farmed there.
