Rescue displays, raft races, pirates, magic and the chance to try the Auckland Rescue Helicopter Trust flight simulator were just some of the activities enjoyed by Howick locals and visitors at the Tāmaki River Festival on 13 February.
Now in its second year, the festival’s theme is ‘on the water, in the water, by the water’ and the event aims to promote water safety and environmental education.
Other activities included kayaking, sailing, water safety education and coastal environment displays.
