What you can expect

Discover the beauty of the Bay of Islands on a cruise and island tour. Visit Roberton Island (Twin Lagoons) and take a short walk to the 360-degree viewpoint over the lagoons where Captain James Cook named the Bay of Islands.

Continue cruising through the islands while keeping a lookout for our unique wildlife and birdlife. Listen to live commentary from your guide as they share information about the area and point out locations of interest.

Visit the famous Hole in the Rock or stopover at a second location (determined on the day depending on the wind direction) where you have the opportunity to explore the island.

Enjoy some free time to relax on the beach and take a swim, or snorkel the sheltered island reefs and try stand-up paddleboarding in the calm waters of the bay. Masks, fins, snorkels, and paddleboarding equipment is provided.

Finally, we step back on board the boat for the return scenic cruise back to Russell/Paihia.
