Huka Prawn Park
Huka Prawn Park is a geothermally warmed prawn farm turned family attraction, where visitors can go prawn fishing, learn about the farming process, and eat prawns at the on-site restaurant. It uses the same geothermally warmed water that feeds much of the Taupō area to farm freshwater prawns year-round.
It's a niche, kid-friendly novelty stop rather than a major sightseeing destination, best combined with a visit to nearby Huka Falls.
