Police released the name of the young man who died in a water-related incident in Milford Sound on Tuesday — he was 23-year-old Daymon Nuhaj. Originally from Nelson, Mr Nuhaj had been living in Milford Sound since 2019 working as a tourism guide at Rosco’s Milford Kayaks. The tour guide was passionate about the outdoors, Mr Gaudin said. Mr Nuhaj, along with two friends, paddled from Lake Hauroko to Milford Sound via the coast. Mr Nuhaj was an experienced kayaker who was very professional, methodical and organised — customers had loved him, he said.
