We cruised for about an hour on the Rotoiti Explorer, the scenery was magnificent, we pulled into little sandy beaches and found a hot spring trickling into the lake and sailed past luxury homes. We were served morning tea and found, hidden in reeds a black swan sitting on her nest. This would have to be the highlight of the day.















The lake also highlights Okere Falls and I would love to have more time to visit the falls and be around the lake at sunset or sunrise for magnificent lighting to reflect on the lake. However, it wasn’t to be and I have to be satisfied with our little experience that we enjoyed.
