Amazing. Will be doing it again.

We booked the winter eco experience aboard the Albatross V. Having the dolphins swim alongside our boat for 20 minutes was an amazing experience. Our skipper had a great personality, very knowledgeable and shared lots of stories and information with us. We had a wonderful day out and enjoyed the muffins. Great fun. We would highly recommend this experience.

Booked me and my two besties to come and have a fun couple hours and it was a blast! Easy to find, plenty of space to park and the man at the office was really helpful. Will be back again 🙂

Very cool to get up and close to the Haruru Falls. Enjoyed the kayaking and Dan was informative and welcoming. Thanks for a great trip.

We have rent 2 single kayaks for 4 hours and went to the waterfall. On our way back it was high tide, so we explored mangroves. Fantastic! Because we still have plenty of time, we wanted to go and explore some islands, but rain came and we got cold. Next time! :-) Thank you Coastal Kayakers!

We had a great experience with these guys. Super friendly and gave us lots of info and other places to go and visit too.

Taylor and Kate are awesome host and we learnt a lot about local birds and Kayaking and stand up paddling techniques.

Was a great family experience. Staff very friendly and helpful. My son was a bit nervous, but staff was there to put his mind at ease, and he ended up enjoying himself. Would definitely recommend.

Lizzy communicated with us due to the weather. Lizzy and Amy were friendly and understanding. We are novice riders and the ride was amazing, with great views of the Bay. The horses were paired to our experience and behaved extremely well. We thoroughly enjoyed our virgin ride. Even might have another go another time.

We had an amazing time here on the 09/06. Emma picked us up from Paihia and was super friendly. She explained everything and made us feel confident even if we were just beginners. The views were amazing, and we enjoyed riding on Moana and Ace. Thanks for the lovely experience.

Enjoyed this experience where we had everyone from complete novice riders to experienced ones in the group. Our host catered to all needs and went out of her way to ensure everyone enjoyed themselves and stayed safe. The time went quickly with a variety of views - roadside, sea and bush riding. The horses were reasonably well behaved, and of course the swim was lots of fun. Thanks!

Nice and friendly staff, good and safe kayaks, wonderful place. Totally recommended

We really enjoyed our paddle out to Haruru falls. The kids had a neat time. The guides were very friendly and funny & great with the kids. Was an awesome experience. Definitely worth doing. The waters are lovely & calm as you are not near any waves.

The highlight of our trip so far. Very friendly and fun staff . The whole trip was amazing fun for both me and my teenage children. Loved it and would def recommend to anyone !

What a great afternoon out. My teenagers loved it too! The guides where extremely friendly and patient. The river and waterfall and bird life were stunning! Great afternoon out, and I believe the last tour at night is even better!

We had a fantastic evening kayaking and bird watching. Dan and Ace were great guides and their enthusiasm was contagious. Highlight was kayaking under the waterfall and even climbing in under to experience all the power of the water!

I lived that tour. My partner and I had so much fun kayaking and the guide, Ben, was super patient and fun. Would do it again.

Awesome afternoon with Dan and Ace from Bay of Islands Waterfall + kayak/paddle board! Guides were relaxed, well informed and made kayaking a breeze! The kayak under the Haruru waterfall is the new favourite NZ must do moment! Great way to spend an afternoon in Paihia!

Thanks Ruby and Dan for an amazing kayaking afternoon. We travelled from Queenstown and was nice to feel the summer! They gave us a lot of advises to do the following days.

What a highlight of our trip. We were lucky enough to have a small group on our booking. The guys were so informative and friendly. Their local knowledge and enthusiasm was infectious. Well done, keep up the good work, will see you again. p.s take the photo package, they captured our experience perfectly.

Wonderful time spent at this very special place. Incredible Maori performance & great food. A must do for anyone visiting NZ

An absolute must do. Amazing guided tour and a cultural performance that gave me goosebumps.

The best cultural experience I have been to in NZ. A great history lesson. The team at Waitangi are fabulous performers & hosts. A must do when visiting the bay of Islands!

Thanks. We had a fantastic day. The ceremonies were so entertaining. It was great to have the Māori culture and history explained to us on the guided tour. We finished the day off with a hangi. Solly our Māori expert was great. I’d recommend this day to everyone visiting this area. IT’S A MUST DO!!

I spent a good time into the Treaty of Whitiangi, really interesting guide and history, I particulary enjoyed the show of the maoris! And beautiful view of the Bay of Island ! I recommended !

My husband and I had a great afternoon at Waitangi Treaty Grounds. A convenient short walk from the wharf with friendly staff ready to greet you. Our guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining as he showed around the grounds and the war canoes. The new museum is fantastic with its interactive displays but best of all was the cultural performance. The team with their amazing singing and dancing were the highlight. Excellent!

The Museum’s static displays are very informative and are well put together - a credit to the volunteers who o his n. Shoe string budget. Th NZ government shoul be more supportive it’s finding. The tour guide was very entertaining and knowledgeable. The cultural performance was excellent and very professional. A great day out for all visitors to obtain a short history lesson on New Zealand - with enough detail to keep it real and interesting

Joey our guide was excellent in the way he told us all about Waitangi - the treaty, the war canoe, the Treaty house and The Flagstaff. We also liked the way he referred to us Aussies as friends and Allies. We really enjoyed the cultural performance especially the way everything they did was explained to us. The museum was well laid out and interesting - we could’ve spent a long time there. The whole experience was well worth our entry fee.

As an overseas visitor the Treaty Grounds gave me valuable knowledge and understanding about NZ and it’s people.

It is great. I could learn Maori dance and history there.

Im really glad we booked the tour, got more information and insight about the treaty and the grounds and the surrounding plants. I think if we didn’t book with the tour we would’nt have a clue and much more knowledge of the surroundings. The marae/ powhiri and maori entertainment was fantastic. Such talented individuals. Definitely worth doing. Vinaka vaka levu, Sereana Bebenisala.
