The Hauraki Gulf is considered one of the most biologically and geographically diverse marine parks in the world. See dolphins, whales, sea birds and penguins.
Dolphins are viewed on over 90% and whales on 75% of trips. Listen to interesting commentary about culture and history of this amazing maritime park while cruising on our luxury purpose built catamaran.
The America’s Cup is the world’s oldest and most prestigious sporting trophy and ultimate yachting regatta. Usually the domain of billionaires and elite professional yachties, this is a unique opportunity to participate in sailing on these grand prix racing machines.
Often considered the jewel in Auckland’s crown is the Waitemata Harbour and Hauraki Gulf. Not only a play area for both ‘boaties’ and ‘yachties’, but also a biologically and geographically diverse maritime national park.
Over 25 of the 37 southern hemisphere marine mammals have been identified in this marine park, making up almost a third of the world’s population of species.
