Once on the water, the group of no more than 8 paddlers heads out towards the southern end of the Queen Charlotte Sound. After an hour or so of relaxed paddling, its time for morning tea, featuring fresh home baked muffins on a secluded sandy beach. Another pleasant paddle across the Sound takes in some of the prettiest native bush in the Sounds. Then its time for lunch. There's plenty of time for swimming, or taking a walk in the bush. The guide will happily talk about fascinating history, wildlife and Maori legends of the area. After lunch (provided) paddle along the shoreline, maybe past the nesting shags, as the group heads across the Sound again to where the van awaits for your return trip to Picton.
