Description
Experience a full day of adventure, starting with a pickup from Auckland City. As we head north, enjoy a scenic three-hour drive through the picturesque landscapes of the Far North District. Arriving in Paihia, you’ll board a comfortable catamaran for a 4.5-hour guided cruise. Set sail through the Bay of Islands, known for its crystal-clear waters and 144 beautiful islands. Keep your eyes peeled for dolphins as we cruise to the iconic Hole in the Rock at Motukokako Island. Weather permitting, the boat will glide through this natural archway, a thrilling highlight of the trip. Next, we’ll make a leisurely stop at Urupukapuka Island. Here, you can unwind on the sandy beaches, swim in the clear waters, or hike to the island’s summit for panoramic views across the bay. It's a perfect opportunity to soak in the tranquility and natural beauty of the region. We’ll begin our journey back to Auckland, tracing our route through the scenic roads of Northland. This tour not only showcases the natural wonders of the Bay of Islands but also offers insights into its rich history as one of the earliest Maori settlements in New Zealand, dating back over 700 years.
