Rere Rockslide
The extreme in local watery sports has to be Rere Rockslide. This natural phenomenon occurs in a section of the Rere River 50km northwest of Gisborne along the Wharekopae Rd. Grab a tyre tube or boogie board to cushion the worst of the bruises and slide down the 60m-long rocky run into the pool at the bottom.
