Being a Picton local we figured it was time to do some of the things our guests get to enjoy while visiting our beautiful piece of paradise. So recently we went with E-Ko Tours out to Motuara Island 😃 What a wonderful experience, a fun filled morning out on the water, we saw different S**g Colonies, Hector Dolphins & Bottlenose Dolphins 🐬 We saw Seals playing in the sea together, awesome native birds and history on Motuara Island all while enjoying the company of our family & friends 🥰
We definitely recommend doing this trip when you book and stay at Garden View Cottages 😍
