OCEAN TAMARIKI is one of our investment paths into community & future generations. Every person who enjoys one of our tours, helps gives back to the “household” in whose backyard you are enjoying.
$10 from every person who does our tours goes into our “OCEAN TAMARIKI School Holiday Program” This program enables us to teach Ocean confidence, water safety skills, and allow local kids to also experience the wonders our beautiful nation has to offer. This fund will provide Fee Free adventures and learning for our local kids during the school holidays. When you choose us, you invest in our future generations too.

In addition to our years of experience in the water we are skilled in management & administration, health & safety, first aid, Bronze Medallion lifesavers, sport coordination & school and holiday programming

OCEAN TUPUNA is our long-term vision for ocean health and animal welfare. We are today’s TOA’S (Warriors) but tomorrow’s TUPUNA’S (Ancestors), we therefore have a responsibility to be better custodians. As an Ocean nation the ocean is critical to our lifestyle & livelihood and therefore should be at the forefront of our mindset. We aim to bring a voice to ocean concerns, shed light on the realities below the surface and challenge the status quo on the direction we should be moving.
We cannot wait to share more about our goals and actions in this space.
