We've come to the difficult decision to cancel our upcoming Whitireia Community Snorkel events. Thank you for your interest and support for these events - we look forward to seeing you back in the water soon.

My Vaccine Pass required and pre-registration may be required.

Exploring what's under the water can feel like traveling to a new planet. Don’t miss the opportunity to experience the underwater world with a snorkel guide and discover the amazing creatures living in the coastal waters close to Porirua. Fun for the whole whanau.

Beginner snorkelers are encouraged (but you must be able to swim). Wetsuits, snorkels, flippers, experienced guides and safety gear are provided. 

You may need to book depending on COVID-19 restrictions so please keep an eye on this page and the Facebook event page for changes. If you click ‘attending’ on the Facebook event, you’ll receive important information and updates, including location changes and postponement due to weather (If the swell is up at Princess Bay, we may move the event to Island Bay). 

Please bring a mask to wear out of the water and a keep cup to enjoy a warm beverage after your swim. 

What to bring: Vaccine pass, photo ID, Togs, towel, sunhat, camera, warm clothes, snacks, a mask to wear out of the water and a keep cup to enjoy a warm beverage after your swim. 

Please note the minimum age is 8 years, and children below 16 must be accompanied by a snorkelling adult. Entry to the final snorkel of the day will close at 2pm.
