Its a great shame that you can not go prawn fishing anymore but hopefully with the great work they are doing it will get back on track. This didn't spoil the experience, recommend taking the guided tour only last 30 mins but well worth seeing all the work that goes on behind the scenes at no extra cost. Peddle boats are great. Take the guided path around and it will take you around all the water activitys kids loved them. Feed the rainbow trout. At the end the restaurant is a must the prawns were fantastic perfectly cooked. Think that park just needs a spruce a little and a few more updated water activities to compensate for the loss off fishing

Interesting experience. The restaurant is located at the entrance of the park so no ticket is needed to go into the restaurant. It is located next to Huka lake with beautiful view at their outdoor seats. You can also see jet boat play it's tricks with the tourists. Unfortunately, no prawn fishing is available. Tried their prawns which were very fresh. They also sell uncooked prawns if interested. Personally, I would prefer to buy uncooked ones instead of dining in.
Very disappointed, only three options for prawns?? The crumbed cutlets over cooked and apparently in short supply. I’ve had better from the supermarket freezer. The small side salad was really just that, drowned in dressing and the best part of the dish was the sweet chili sauce (and I’m not really a fan!!). The wine arrived when the meal was almost finished as well. Tourist prices were the bitter icing on the cake. Won’t be back.
I recently dined at the restaurant within Huka Prawn Park, and I must say it was an incredibly underwhelming experience. I ordered the 1kg steamed prawns for a whopping $126, expecting a delightful and unique culinary experience. Unfortunately, what I received was far from extraordinary. The prawns were just regular, lacking any special flavors or preparations that would justify the exorbitant price tag. It felt like I could have easily replicated the dish at home for a fraction of the cost. To add insult to injury, the sauces provided did not complement the prawns at all, creating a disjointed and unappetizing combination. What's more, there were no side dishes to accompany the overpriced prawns. A complete lack of creativity and effort in the presentation and overall dining experience left me questioning the value for money. I expected more from a restaurant associated with a tourist attraction. In conclusion, I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a memorable dining experience. The price is unjustifiably high for what essentially amounts to a basic steamed prawn dish, and the lack of thoughtful accompaniments further contributes to the overall disappointment. Save your money and explore other dining options that offer better value and a more satisfying culinary adventure.
Very fun activity park. There is a good variety of activites from little walks to water rides. Almost all of the activies are water themed so particularly for the kids having spare clothes or togs on would be recomended. However in saying that it isnt a water park and there are no swimming zones. The little pond with the boats and trikes etc was quite good fun and without queues you can jump from boat to boat trying them all. It was surprisingly un busy which made the experience all the more nicer. Pricing wasnt too bad however they make up for it at the cafe! Food was good at the cafe and the view was quite lovely but it is pricey.

Great value for money if you’re looking for something fun to do with the kids. Will be even better once you can fish for prawns again but we had a great time regardless. The staff are amazing, very knowledgeable and friendly. Food from the restaurant was delicious and we throughly enjoyed watching the jet boat while we ate.

Regardless of not being able to fish for prawns. There is a lot of things to do. Our wee kids enjoyed themselves running around the park and doing all the activities. The cafe has a lovely big fire pit in the middle. Meals sizes were very generous, however I wished there was a bit more menu item options. Staff provided amazing service.
We love our tour guide (front desk) for the day, we forgot to asked her name, she is so kind and sweet. And all the staff on the day. They are all lovely and so welcoming. And the lady whom I returned the life vest of my toddler, she end our day with a very lovely goodbye. 🥰 For the staff of the resto, so amazing. The food, it's superb. Perfect place for the family. Food and fun 5⭐ Surely, we will visit and spend our family time here 🥰 again.

First time visiting the Prawn Park as an adult and really enjoyed our time at the theme park. The tour was informative and the prawn feeding experience was fun. We also spent a lot of time trying out the various paddle / row boats and went for a short walk along the trail. The prawn meal was delicious and I would definitely get it again.
Pretty cool place ! I personally think the price is a little steep in winter since you can't really enjoy all the water features. Looks like an amazing place to come back when the weather is warmer though. Food is on the steep side too. We did a tour with a lady that was very nice and taught us alot of things that we didn't know about prawns. It was a cool experience feeding the baby ones too.
