Marine Life Tours offers accommodation for 2 in the main bedroom of the spacious heritage home built in 1920 to overlook the Opotiki Wharf. We can accommodate more but prefer to focus on giving quality time to just 2 at a time.
The home is right there by the wharf, boat ramp, river swimming, Motu cycle Trail, minutes from the CBD and more. Its also a very quiet area of town with just the sounds of breaking surf in the distance.
