Expérience incroyable

Les traversées se sont très bien passées, le bateau était à l’heure. Malheureusement je n’ai pas eu la chance de voir des dauphins ou des pingouins mais les paysages restent magnifiques! Je recommande a 100% l’île

Otehei bay cruise

Worth the price.. our booking was rescheduled but we were lucky for that as they booked us for 2pm cruise. Weather was wet but we got dolphins amd killer whales to view. The captain and crew were in no rush and made sure we all on board had enough time and space to enjoy the view and sea life..

Not good or easy

I traveled from Auckland and parking was available a little far so was just a few minutes late. Ferry left right in front of us and they didn't stop for us or refunded us. Was a complete waste. Please be aware and plan everything way ahead as there is no option after that.

Wonderful

Great day out across the islands with whānau. From good health and safety onboard vessel, great MC over intercom, getting dropped off at Urupukapuka and being only people chilling there. We took the camp trolley full of kai and beverages for a picnic on the islands. Met few tourist as they came back from their Hole in the Rock experience. Yes I would definitely do it again!!
