5.00Loved it overall, a very unique experience for us! Exciting ride into stunning coastal beauty of beaches & caves! Great commentary from Brian! Very windy day which made the return trip back to the Wharf a bit scary in moments & jarring on the body at times.

5.00The boat was fast, the thrills were real, and the views were amazing. I can’t imagine there’s a better way to see the immensely intricate coastline of this section of the Coromandel. Snorkeling (for me) and cliff jumping (for my boys) were highlights. Plus great history and music onboard. Don’t miss it!

5.00This was a highlight of our time spent in New Zealand! Brian is an absolute incredible host and shared some very cool history, on top of thrills. We brought our 8 year old and he had a blast in the front. We couldn’t stop laughing! It was a great experience and we’d do it again in a heartbeat. Must do!!
Must try in Coromandel!!
