Chartering one of our boats or coaches means you can take a select group of people on a private cruise or tour of the Bay of Islands. How cool would it be to spend a day cruising around the Bay of Islands celebrating a birthday or saying ‘I do’ to your loved one?

You can choose the set itinerary that our cruises currently follow or a customised itinerary based on what you want to see and do. Our expert skippers are skilled at cruising through the Hole in the Rock, getting you up close to sheltered bays and on some boats, we can drop you off on a secluded island for you and your friends to explore.

We have a range of boats that you can choose from, each with an experienced skipper and friendly crew members who’ll provide lively commentary about the region, wildlife and history of the Bay of Islands. Our largest boat can take up to 230 passengers (150 all-weather) and our smallest boat can take 34 passengers. All of our boats are equipped with toilets and some have a licensed bar and café on board. Specifically designed for New Zealand waters, our boats have large viewing decks to maximise viewing opportunities.   

Some of the events we’ve hosted include birthday parties, weddings, engagement parties, business meetings and team building events.

Our coaches can also be chartered and we’ll happily work with you to find the best one for your event.
