Great organisation to get the maximum time on the water - Excellent tour, exceptionally good and efficient organisation at the beach to "turnover" the guests on the boats to get the maximum time on the water. Very pleased to see that there are companies that truely seek to provide the max what can be expected for money. We saw a lot of cool places along the cost and the boat did stop considerably longer in the Cathedral Cove area so that everyone could get a good view and take in the sight.

Great way to see Cathedral Cove - We really enjoyed this tour.
Knowing that Cathedral Cove is closed due to landslip, we opted for this tour and we were not disappointed. Tom, our skipper, was very personable and knowledgeable. The online booking process was easy, the confirmation communications really clear and what better way to see Cathedral Cove and the surrounding coast and islands.

Great couples adventure - Well done - easy from start to finish. You load/unload on the beach in the water at knee-high depth, so be prepared to go barefoot. Experienced skipper knew his stuff. Friendly staff. Awesome experience all around.

Cathedral Peak - We had a wonderful experience. We turned up early and was an accommodated onto an earlier slot on the boat trip. We learned about the marine life within the coromandel peninsula, visited the caves and had photo opportunities.. Our guide Ryan was very informative..

Well run tour - We were pushed back a day due to bad weather, but the communication was clear from the team & we had an awesome trip the next day. The whole coastline is amazing with no one stand out feature. It was all brilliant. The commentary from Oscar was great too. Would highly recommend.
