  • Awesome experience!

    Ash's experience and knowledge of the area, ancestory and geology made the trip really enjoyable. He went out of his way to help us have the best experience and had blankets on board for those sea-breezy moments. To see the landscape from the water's edge is by far the ideal way to enjoy Coromandel. Highly rate this trip.

    Absolutely amazing amd great value for money. Ash our tour guide shared a lot of local knowledge and pointed out movie set areas. Dispite the high swell, it was a very pleasant trip due to Ash's great driving. Would highly recomend this tour to anyone.

    I went this January with my girlfriend and we had such a good time. Read plenty of reviews that mentioned how great Ash was as a guide and it lived up to the hype! Such a great time with great insight to the area. He made sure everyone got to do and see what they wanted to. I wanted to do some cliff jumping and he took me to some huge rocks. We finished by anchoring up and doing some snorkeling. Definitely recommend especially since the cathedral cove trail has been shut down for so long!

  • The best boat trip you can do.

    What a trip. Absolutely fantastic and the caves were brilliant. We got to see the caves up close and personal with some great boatmanship from our ‘Captain’ Ash. We got to see a sea boiling with fish and catch some (they were set free!). Swimming with fish. Highly recommended.

    This experience was great and, besides the beautiful coast line, Ash, the guide of the tour made all the difference. He was so nice and compassionate and caring. He wanted to make it unforgettable for each and everyone on the trip. He is also an excellent boat driver which made all the difference getting in the caves.

    This was a great experience. We got so close and in so many caves. I went on a similar tour in a glass bottom bigger boat a few years ago and this was sooo much better. We even got to jump of a cliff at the opening of a cave into the water. The guides a so good and so knowledgeable. He and his wife worked with marine life for years before settling and having kids. Highly, highly recommend

  • Fun, interesting.

    We really enjoyed this. Ash our driver/tour guide was so friendly and knowledgeable. We saw a huge school of Kahawai the sea birds were feeding on. Snapper in the marine reserve. Cathedral cove and many caves of interest. Some of our group swam from the boat to Cathedral cove, and we picked them up on the other side. I would do this again if I get the opportunity. Thanks Ash.

    BOOK THIS TOUR! We had an awesome time with Ash who runs this tour. You'll get to see the Cathedral Cave where we got to jump in and swim to the beach ans walk the cave. It's a lot of people on the beach and seeing it from the ocean was amazing. He also took us to several other beautiful caves and spots where you could jump into the water if you wanted. We can tell it's more of a personalised tour than the other boat companies. Ash has great knowledge of the area and the history and is highly skilled driving the boat.

    This was an awesome experience, way better than advertised. Ash, our captain, is very knowledgeable and was providing a lot of information about the formation of the rocks and caves that we would have never have learned about otherwise. We got to take a quick dip in one of the coves which was great (a bit cold but not awful). An unexpected major highlight of our trip!
