Business owner/operator Kenny McCracken first fell in love with the Eastern Bay of Plenty whilst hitch hiking around New Zealand in 1990 and returned with his family to live there in 1995. Now based on the shores of the enchanting Ohiwa Harbour close to the Maori village of Kutarere, KG Kayaks has evolved to become a mobile operation, providing the freedom to launch from a number of venues around the Eastern Bay of Plenty.

We employ experienced local guides who know the history and local environment and are always keen to share our beautiful backyard. Our relaxing, family friendly Ohiwa Harbour tours and offshore tours at spectacular Moutohorā / Whale Island are particularly popular.

The trip out to Whale Island by sailing catamaran is always memorable, with regular wildlife encounters and a hot water beach experience making it a day to remember.

Freedom hires available all day.

Options are also available for school and business groups.

Safety on the water and catering for occasional kayakers (novices) is what we are about! See you soon! Call to book.
