Embark on a small group day tour from Auckland to explore the Bay of Islands. Revel in the enlightening commentary as you traverse the iconic Auckland Harbour Bridge, absorbing New Zealand’s magnificent rural countryside and sub-tropical bush scenery en route to the exquisite Bay of Islands. Board a scenic cruise around the bay to witness some of the remarkable 144 islands, approach the cliffs at Cape Brett, and navigate through the iconic Hole in the Rock. Keep an eye out for dolphins, whales, and other marine wildlife during your journey. A 1.5-hour island stop offers ample time for dining, swimming and walking. The Bay of Islands truly spoils you with its plethora of must-do experiences!

Commence your magical cruise in Paihia and savour the awe-inspiring views as you glide through the islands and along the Rakaumangamanga Peninsula to Cape Brett. Here, a historic lighthouse stands guard over Piercy Island/Motukōkako, or as it's commonly known, the ‘Hole in the Rock’. Marvel at the towering rock walls as the skipper expertly steers through the narrow space (conditions permitting) before heading back into the inner islands of the Bay. Be ready with your camera to capture any sightings of common and bottlenose dolphins, whales, and other marine life.

As your journey concludes, take in the spectacular views from the Auckland Harbour Bridge while arriving in Auckland's central city under the night sky. It's an adventure you won’t forget.
