Leisure Activities
Manaroa offers an exciting and diverse range of outdoor pursuits to suit your individual taste
With so many wonderful activities to choose from, you'll never want to go back to the "real world"! Manaroa offers you access to a wide variety of both entertaining and relaxing ways to spend your time in paradise.
A few suggestions........
Get a bird's eye view of the Marlborough Sounds with a scenic flight on Sounds Air or the Picton Floatplane.
Cruise the cool, calm waters of the Pelorus and Kenepuru Sounds on board a chartered boat. Fish for blue cod, snapper, kingfish and grouper and dive for scallops, crayfish and paua. Nothing beats a day on the water!
Hunt for deer and wild pigs in the bush-clad hills above Manaroa. Go for a spotlight at night or, for a real Kiwi experience, try a moonlight hunt to catch the illusive wild boar using pig dogs and a knife..... not for the faint-hearted!!
Join the manager of Manaroa Farm on a guided tour of the 680 hectare piece of paradise that is home to 2500 sheep, 300 deer and120 cows.
Enjoy a relaxing game of golf on the Nopera Golf Course, just half an hours drive from Manaroa. The 9 hole course is a true Kiwi classic! Electric fences keep the sheep on the fairways and off the putting greens! A great experience that is a lot of fun!
Take in the beauty of the native bush and farmland surrounding Manaroa with a walk on one of the many tracks meandering through the hills. Day treks on the Queen Charlotte Walkway or Mount Stoke Walk are also a popular choice, just a short scenic drive from Manaroa.
Indulge in a therapeutic massage on the verandah -- the perfect way to unwind.
Less than an hours drive from Manaroa you will find a small handful of lovely restaurants with gourmet fare and world renowned Marlborough wines sure to impress even the most discerning palate.
