Lake Rotoiti Water Shuttle Cruise and Hot Pools Experience
Cruise Lake Rotoiti to the boat-access-only geothermal paradise at Manupirua Bay - Lake Rotoiti Hot Pools.
Totally unique to New Zealand — and rare around the world — this hidden gem has been rated one of New Zealand’s best hot pool locations and is open 365 days a year!
This is a 2.5-hour experience. The scenic cruise across the lake takes approximately 20 minutes each way, giving you around 1.5 hours to soak and relax at the hot pools. Your friendly skipper will be happy to answer any questions and share local insights along the way.
There are eight hot pools on the lakeside, each fed by a natural spring and offering different temperatures to suit every comfort level. You can cool off with a dip in the lake from the beach or take the fun route — down the slide at the end of the jetty! The beach itself is geothermal, so even a gentle paddle will warm your feet as you twist them into the sand.
Feeling adventurous? A short but steep walking track leads to a stunning lookout above the pools for panoramic lake views. There’s also a small café on site offering drinks, snacks, and ice creams to enjoy before your return journey.
