We had a great time. I can’t remember the gentleman’s name but I think it started with J . He was so friendly and funny. And really informative. A nice man. The boat ride was great .We learnt so much. And it was really picturesque . The caves were so cool to sail into

I would recommend this

My sister and I booked the 2 hour trip to Cathedral Cove. Justin was very clear that we may not get the full trip due to high swell making it unsafe to go out into the open sea. It was reassuring to know our safety was paramount. In the end we got everything but Hot Sands Beach as the conditions improved. There was no option to get off the boat or swim but I knew this from the outset.

Cathedral cove & more!

Brilliant boat trip. Our skipper, Justin, was excellent - knowledgeable & very helpful. We saw the beautiful coastline, bays, rock formations, sea caves & fish... We didn't want it to end! Highly recommend. Thank you Lorraine & Paul Fenton

What a great way to see the Coromandel coast!

We had a great time on the cruise—our guide/captain, Justin, provided a lot of great insight on the geology, history, biology and culture of the region. He was also was excellent at handling the boat, and made sure everyone got a good view and/or camera shot. It’s really a first-class experience, quite comfortable and fun.
