Wonderful Water Fun
We had such a sweet time out on the harbour on a great vessel for viewing all the skyline of Auckland and the lovely bays and marinas. The captain and staff were very obliging and served a fabulous spread of early evening food and nibbles, the sushi and salmon so yummy and fresh. Everyone was really friendly to each other, as we all had the same goal to make the most of the time in the sea air and sights of such a pretty time with sunset and city lights, have never seen the harbour bridge lit up like that, so fun !! Make sure you do a cruise with Red Boats !!
