Stunning boat tour to Stevensons Island

I had a fantastic boat tour to Stevensons Island in Wanaka. The lake was calm, and the scenery was breathtaking, with snowy mountains in the background. On the island, we enjoyed a walk to a lookout for great photo opportunities and learned interesting facts about the region. It was a peaceful, beautiful experience, perfect for discovering the lake and its stunning surroundings. A truly memorable way to enjoy Wanaka’s natural beauty!
