Situated in the Hauraki Gulf about 2.5 hours from Auckland by ferry, Great Barrier Island is one of New Zealand's best kept secrets. Sparsely populated with large areas of rugged, un-spoilt natural beauty, it's a place to really get away from it all.
Hiking, mountain biking, diving, surfing and fishing are all popular adventure activities on the island. Beautiful walking tracks through native forests lead to secluded natural hot springs and pristine white sandy beaches. The more enthusiastic trampers can head for the beckoning summit of Hirakimata (Mount Hobson) rising 627 metres above the sea, with its spectacular 360 degree views.

From the moment the accelerator hits the floor your adrenaline hits the roof, as you speed in mere centimetres of water along the famous Shotover River and deep into the spectacular Shotover River Canyons.
Jet the entire length of Hanmer's spectacular Waiau Gorge, raft down the Waiau Gorge Canyon and see the surrounding countryside, put yourself in control of a four-wheel quad bike and ride down river crossings, mud, dust and dirt tracks and leap off the historic 135 year old Ferry Bridge for a 35 metre free-fall to the river canyon below.
