    We had an awesome trip with Sea Cave Adventures. The skipper was a really nice guy who told a lot about the area, nature and history. Our kids had a really good experience. This was defiantly one of the highlights of our trip so far.

  • Fantastic tour and awesome guide!

    We had an amazing time with Sea Cave Adventures! It was a very personal small group experience. Ash was an awesome guide and noticed my son had brought binoculars (he's a huge bird watcher). When Ash found out my son was into birds, he took us to several spots where we could see them! The boat was very comfortable and small enough to get right into the caves! We got up close and personal with some amazing caves for incredible photos. Ash also gave everyone the option to hop in for a swim or snorkel. This was definitely a highlight of our trip and we highly recommend you check them out!

  • Exhilarating, fascinating and enlightening

    This tour was amazing! In spite of a weather forecast of bad weather, the Coromandel really turned on the good weather for us. Ash has lots of experience on the water and was a superb captain and host. He was able to tell us a lot about the history of the region from pre-colonial times. The caves we got to visit were just out of this world. I don't think you can really get a sense of the majesty and diversity of the region without seeing it this way. It was also the only tour boat we saw that didn't have a canopy so we could get amazing pics looking upwards from inside some of the caves. Magical!

    Amazing day on the water with Shona and Ash. Got to snorkel with massive schools of Kahawai and followed dolphins around a baitball for ages. Got to see baby dolphins breaching. Shona and Ash are so informative and such chill people. Awesome experience and highly recommend to anyone!

    Must do adventure, Ash was so knowledgeable of both Maori and European history we learnt so much about the Coromandel not to mention the amazing views, this boat goes inside the caves and you see so much more. We will be back next year to see the northern end of the coast which we are very excited about. Shona was also super amazing over the phone ...support this family owned business they exceeded our expectations and over delivered - ka mau te wehi

    We may not able to access the Cathedral Cove, but we are so glad that we booked Sea Cave Adventure that we were able to see it and explored the other beautiful caves and islands around Coromandel Peninsula. It's totally fun and worth it, a must try adventure. Ash, your the best!

    We booked this tour after a google search and what I loved about their website was that it showed how many seats were available on each boat! We were fortunate to have Ash as our captain who was super chill and so passionate about his Māori heritage and the beauty of the Coromandel peninsula. With their special boats, we were able to go into SO many caves and see all the rock formations on the coast. It was the most lovely afternoon and our captain was eager to take pictures for us when we needed! I would highly recommend Sea Cave Adventures for a tour of the coast! So much fun!
