It’s been over a month now that we packed up our house in Auckland, crammed everything into our storage container and moved into our van – Water Nomads on tour. The idea is to travel the country, explore new spots and locations and connect with lots of interesting people all over the country. This should […]
With the Delta variant of COVID-19 circulating in the community in Auckland, we are all going to face a few more weeks in various degrees of lockdown in New Zealand. However, nothing lasts forever, so why not make plans for when we are allowed to travel again. Reward yourself with a Surfari with us. Here […]
At Water Nomads, we take our motto “Come a stranger – leave a friend” literally. A lot of our guests come back for more and turn into good friends. Over the last few years, we already rewarded those returning customers with perks and specials. However, with our customer base growing, we decided to formalise it […]
The journey over the past 3 years has been exciting and full of surprises. Finding a name and a logo that represents the character and motivation behind the business was our first challenge. We settled with the name Water Nomads as it includes travelling, exploring new places, being open for new things and meeting people […]
That was 4 out of 5, and most of those I was overpowered. And no, I wasn’t in Taranaki or Wellington, it was good old Auckland! It all started with some Westerlies middle of the week. Being stuck with my day-job at the Boardstore, I couldn’t go out during the day, but it was still […]
The last couple months have been long and hard for all of us. For some, the challenges are only really beginning. COVID-19 has seen a huge disruption in our lives and activities. In someways though, being able to connect more than ever through technology hasn’t been so bad. But there is always that desire to […]
A good 4 weeks ago we saw ourselves confronted with unprecedented lockdown in New Zealand due to the worldwide Covid-19 pandemic. Not knowing what to expect, we were glad we got that one last windsurf session the day before it was announced. We then settled in for an interesting social experiment. New Zealand’s lockdown turned […]
Giving the big city of Auckland a crack the last years has been good to us, great harbours and coastlines with many coastal islands to play in. Surfing, windsurfing, sup and kayak adventures are endless here. Yet we feel it is coming to a time for a new scene. And as our passion toward water […]
Premium performance boards built to be cutting edge – light, fast and responsive. Small bumps and bruises happen to all of us, we pick ourselves up and we keep going. The boards on the other hand, will suffer quickly if their bruises are not attended too. Here at Water Nomads we not only provide you […]
The concept was simple, long term rental of premium surf, windsurf and SUP boards and gear for travellers to New Zealand that have a passion for water sports. And whom have an aversion to the horrors that come with oversize luggage charges and restrictions that inevitably come with long distance air travel.
