Can a GKE multi-zone cluster be migratd to a single-zone one?

I currently have a GKE multi-zone cluster and I will like to move it to a single-zone one, the only option I can think is to create a second cluster and do the migration manually.

Is there a more straightforward way?

Unfortunately after reading official documentation and cluster concepts I noticed that you cannot change the zones after cluster creation.

Here are the notes from the docs:

Note: After you create a cluster, you cannot change it from zonal to regional, or regional to zonal.

Note: Once you create a multi-zonal cluster, you cannot convert it to a single-zone or regional cluster.

For migration purposes there is project worth checking out called Velero. Here`s a good medium article with migration using it.
