Snapper Adventure

Discover the action packed world of catching a snapper on a light but powerful soft bait rod. You will be tutored on how to deftly use the soft bait to simulate an injured bait fish, making it irresistible to a large snapper.

Kingfish Adventure

Rated one of the most exciting sports fish in the ocean, the adrenalin rush you will get when your line starts screaming off the reel is a first taste of excitement as you battle these torpedoes of the sea. Although we can show you a variety of ways to catch these fish, high speed jigging is our favourite and will provide you with exhilarating heart pumping action.

Cruise the Gulf

Experience one of the most beautiful cruising areas in the world, and explore the islands of the Hauraki Gulf. We can take you to a tranquil anchorage for a swim and picnic ashore. You can bring your own food, or indulge in one of our famous patters that can be made to your requirements. Although there are unlimited choices, here are some of our favourites:


The Noises Islands

Out in the middle of the Gulf, A beautiful group of islands offering a great walk ashore, exploration of the caves by dinghy, or a good feed of mussels at the right time of the year.

Motutapu Island

With beautiful beaches on the northern coastline and great walks ashore to the gun batteries originally built during WWII. This island is undergoing replanting and in decades to come will be like Tiritiri Matangi Island, which is one of NZ's special 'Open' Wild Life Sanctuaries.

Waiheke Island

The white sandy northern beaches and small coves are great for swimming, exploring or simply getting away from it all.

Tiritiri Matangi Island

Known as the jewel in the crown of the Hauraki Gulf. This 'Open' Wild Life Sanctuary is home to most on NZ's endangered species of birds.
