Off the beaten track with Kennedy Warne

From Nine To Noon, 11:45 am on 22 September 2025

It's the spring equinox tomorrow, so not surprising that parts of the country are experiencing equinoctial gales at the moment.

Kennedy joins Kathryn Ryan from the breezy tip of Musick Point, a finger of land jutting into the Hauraki Gulf in east Auckland.

He discusses the news of last Friday when the High Seas Treaty became international law, following the ratification of 60 member states.

And the report from Fisheries NZ detailing the extent of kelp forest loss along the north-east coast of New Zealand.

Creatures of the high seas will benefit from a new UN treaty that has just become international law.
