Event Details

For a limited time only over Autumn 2019 the Maritime Museum will be offering a unique sailing experience on the waka AOTEAROA ONE.

Climb aboard this special vessel for a one-hour sailing trip out on the Waitemata Harbour while learning about traditional Maori and Polynesian culture and sailing methods. AOTEAROA ONE is a modern take on a traditional waka and was launched in 2003 for Te Wananga o Aotearoa at their Mangere Campus in Auckland.

Waka sailings are available at the museum on Tuesdays and Sundays until 2nd June 2019 in partnership with Te Toki Voyaging Trust. Sailings are at 11:30am and 1:30pm.

There is, unfortunately, no wheelchair access to the waka.

Bookings essential. Please call (09) 373 0800 or email info@maritimemuseum.co.nz to reserve your place

* NZ Maritime Museum will supply life jackets for children from 10kg up to the age of 14 years. Children under 10kg cannot join a waka cruise.
