Snorkel in crystal clear waters, kayak around uninhabited islands, catch your own fresh seafood or walk on deserted beaches to experience the true magic of this special part of New Zealand.

Ecocruz is designed to let you experience the diversity of the Bay of Islands Maritime Park. The cruise is divided equally between sailing and discovery with a few hours of passage making followed by an exploration of our destination and a good meal. At night we anchor in secluded bays away from the main tourist routes.

We do not have a standard route or itinerary as these are entirely weather dependent. Our journey will take you to lush, uninhabited islands and rugged, coastal headlands where you will have ample time to go kayaking, snorkelling, walking and fishing.

While all activities are guided you always have the option to explore by yourself or to just sit back and relax. This flexibility allows us to make each trip unique. We enjoy what we do and are happy to share our knowledge of the Bay of Islands and its wildlife, history and culture with you.
