This is a half day cruise starts from Paihia, the famous tourist town in the northland region of New Zealand. The Bay of Islands is a natural harbor about 16 kilometers wide on the northeastern coast of New Zealand’s North Island. Bay of Islands is home to 144 islands, ranging from rocky outcrops to large, inhabited islands with private farms. Regarded as the birthplace of New Zealand, this region affords a unique insight into early European settlement and Māori culture. Towns in and around the Bay of Islands include Paihia, Russell, Kerikeri, Opua and Kawakawa. During this cruise we are passing through some of the beautiful islands and visiting the famous Hole in the Rock and Cape Brett Peninsula. Another attraction of this cruise is watching dolphins in their natural habitat. And on our way back, we have a stopover at beautiful Otehei Bay.
