We had an absolutely wonderful experience on the Hole in the Rock cruise! The scenery was breathtaking, with beautiful islands, spectacular rock formations, and stunning ocean views. One of the most exciting moments was getting to go right through the famous Hole in the Rock! It was truly a unique and unforgettable experience. We enjoyed every moment of the cruise, and it was definitely one of the highlights of our Bay of Islands trip. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Paihia!

Boat trip was excellent. Got upgraded from the 3 hr tour to the 4 1/2 hr tour 👍🏽. The tour guides were very helpful and friendly and happy to have a chat with you. Bring food and water. Find parking that suits your time limit - inspectors out and about . Avoid a parking fine.

Claire_K, Aug 2026

Day trip to Cape Reinga and much more.

This was a long but fabulous day trip. Many compliments to our driver/ guide, George who was not only informative, but entertaining and considerate. He gave wonderful accounts and information adding to the great atmosphere. We loved sand boarding and the new beach bus on Ninety Mile beach. The new bus was really comfortable. Lunch was lovely and picnic stop was breathtaking. Would recommend this trip to all as a must do to Cape Reinga.

Bay of Islands Cruise & Island Tour - Snorkel, Hike,Swim,Wildlife

Beth_E, Aug 2026

10 out of 10 day!!!

This was 10 out of 10 AMAZING!! Cass was incredible, her energy was infectious and she seemed to genuinely love this gig! We saw the Bay Squad of dolphins that surrounded and swam with our boat as we moved along. They were SO close, less than a meter from boat criss crossing underneath and jumping to our delight. Tons of them. Absolutely unforgettable experience. Our skipper Hamish knew the area well as a Russell local. Do the hikes, the views are incredible! All in all 10 out of 10. Stop in Russell for a bite at Duke of Marlborough on your way back!! So yummy! Cass, you’re the BEST!!

John_L, May 2026

Great experience if you...

Great experience if you like a bit of speed & something different. The guys were very informative, only thing was you could hardly hear them with all the wind noise. We obviously booked thru Viator but it was double the price than booking directly with the bike guys. they were at the wharf advertising & ready for rides.

Michele_S, Apr 2026

A great way to see the beautiful Bay of Islands

The cruise visits some of the many stunning locations in the Bay of Islands. The crew were great - engaging and informative- and the Captain’s commentary was from the perspective of a true local. Recommended. (Note there are 3 options for lunch - order a picnic pack as part of the cruise, take your own, or lunch at the cafe at the Otehei Bay stopover)

A great introduction to the Bay of Islands

Michael was the perfect host who accommodated a later arrival (that never happened) from a cruise ship. Our group of 8 was show keys sights with local commentary. Great ending in Russell where additional time could be spent (or alternative dropped off back at Praihai). Highly recommnded tour.

Fun day in the Bay of Islands

It was a chilly day of sailing but Monique and Brad made the best of it. We had blankets to keep us warm and they provided a delicious lunch in a beautiful spot in the Bay of Islands. The sun peaked through in the afternoon making for a beautiful hike. We enjoyed our day with Bayscapes and would do it again!

Discover the Bay - Hole in the Rock cruise includes Island Lunch

chessybear, Mar 2026

Return visit 25 years on and still great.

Awesome experience. Highly recommend. The boat was very comfortable and clean toilets. We were not full so loads of inside and outside seating. Leftside is best side to sit on. The island stop over was great, time for a swim or hike up the hill for even better views. Lunch included was ok but you can buy hot food etc at the restaurant. The captain was excellent his commentary was very informative and we went looking for dolphins on the way back which we found. A wonderful end to a great excursion. Thankyou Fullers.

We had a lovely trip out to see the Bay of Islands and the Hole in the Rock. We were lucky enough that the conditions were suitable for the boat to go through the hole in the rock, which was a highlight. Would recommend when stopping at the Island to walk up to the view point to see excellent views.

Parasailing Adventure Over the Bay of Islands

Thomas_G, Jan 2026

Still Smiling

We were wondering how an 82 and 79 year old could be accommodated but we had the great assistance of Ben and crew. The weather was perfect and it took all the rest of the day to relax the smiles on our faces. Of all the choices we had that sunny day we picked the best. There is not a negative word to be said. I recommend this adventure to all reading this account

Island Hopper- Sail to wildlife sanctuary - 6 hr - Bay of Islands

nathan_w, Dec 2025

Even with the high winds,...

Even with the high winds, large swells, and periodic rain, my partner and I had a great time on the cruise. Luke and his first mate were very welcoming and made the experience memorable. We opted for the nature walk on the island, about a 20 minute hike to a beautiful beach, where we ate lunch and took plenty of great pictures. Highly recommended and for the love of God, wear sunscreen.
