Waterskiing & Wakeboarding

For families looking to add a bit of excitement to their summer, waterskiing and wakeboarding on Lake Dunstan provide the ultimate mix of thrill and laughter. The lake is relatively small so it is great for beginners to learn on, and offers a safe environment for everyone to practise and show off their skills.

Jet Skiing is another popular lakeside activity during Cromwell summers. Families from all over New Zealand flock to the shores of Lake Dunstan to take their jetski out for a day of fun. With places to explore all along the lake, there are multiple boat launching spots with McKnulty Inlet only a 3 minute drive from our hotel.
