Explore the best spots of Auckland's Hauraki Gulf including Rakino, Aha’s, The Noises, Tiritiri Matangi or the famous Rangitoto Island, Motuihe and Waiheke.

Because we have a number of fishing charter boats and very experienced skippers, we're up to speed where the current top spots are. The range of fish can vary with the most common and popular fish being the Snapper. Also on offer are Gurnard, Trevally, John Dory and Terakihi. From time to time we spot Dolphins and Whales on our trips too.

You can also take this boat as a private charter throughout the week or weekend. Our operations run 7 days a week, however bookings in advance are necessary.
