  • Baz, Hamish and the lads made us very welcome from the off. We were lucky with the weather and visibility under as well as above water, but Baz’s excellent commentary set the whole trip off perfectly. Stunningly beautiful scenery as well as some fascinating human history.
    A most enjoyable few hours.

  • Absolutely fantastic morning with Baz and Halena. Boat was fantastic for a small group experience. Baz and Halena were so friendly , professional and knowledgeable. We were shown some spectacular sights and Baz’s skill in getting us inside the sea cave was amazing. The snorkelling was great with first class equipment. Would highly recommend doing the tour with this company. Excellent value for money.

  • This was fantastic. The business is now operated by Baz, and he and crew do a great job. There are many stops along the way and excellent information is provided by the crew. They really want to make sure you are comfortable. The coastline is so beautiful in this area!

  • My wife and I recently enjoyed the experience visiting a number of spots including Cathedral Cove while visiting the Whitanga area with Husband & Wife team who run the scenic cruise, great 2 hour trip, very friendly and easy going couple.
    Highly recommended.
