Last night we went on a canyoning trip with our guide Kevin(who also happens top be Dutch). It was a great experience. Good guidance and a lot of information during the trip. A little tea break with the magnificent sight of couple of hundred glowworms. An absolute must do If you are near Raglan.
Helpful welcoming staff and great meal. Definitely recommend as value for money.
A great experience
The cruise was really nice ...we had an amazing view of the sunset, and to see the rock formations around the bay and the Sleeping Lady ,with the commentary from the skipper, it was really something we haven't done before...so it's really a wonderful experience!
A must do in Raglan particularly if a fine evening. We enjoyed yummy fish and chips on the Wahine Moe while cruising around the Whaingaroa Harbour taking in the fascinating history, geography and geology of this beautiful place. All topped off with a glorious sunset. The captain’s commentary during the trip was excellent, just the right balance of humour out and informative, and the crew were delightful and helpful. Highly recommended!
Cruise with friends, have a great trip at inner sea... Raglan, Nice and Breeze..
Best experience ever and worth the money
Amazing, highly recommend
Truly wonderful experience with knowledge, experienced captain and friendly on board patrons! Sunset was magnificent, definitely lending to the name off the tour
- [ ] We absolutely loved the Raglan Sunset Cruise! It was such a beautiful cruise and my mum and mum in law who normally get seasick found it so relaxing and enjoyable :) The water was so calm and we enjoyed the breeze at the top deck with the beautiful sunset just behind us. The boat and the toilet (which was also spacious) were clean and the string lights added to the magical ride back to the harbour. All these while enjoying a glass of pinot gris onboard! Shoutout to the whole crew who were very welcoming and friendly! I highly recommend this to everyone, it’s definitely worth it! This whole experience made me fall in love with sunsets, I’ll definitely do it again :)
The views on the sea, riverside and beaches during the sunset were amazing. The fish and chips were a fantastic touch with a drink coupled with interesting info spoken over the speakers by the captain make for a very entertaining and educational experience. The bathrooms are really impressive for a boat, like first class impressive
A great way to see another side of Raglan
It was a great experience being in this sunset cruise. My daughter loves watching the sunset and i love the sea so it was a perfect thing to do.It made me realize that God is so good for allowing us to see his creation.You won’t feel bored because the captain is so good in commentating and knows the history with good sense of humour.Try it if you are in Raglan❤️
Such a great experience! It didn’t matter that it wasn’t the best weather for a sunset, the commentary was outstanding and the fish and chips were so fresh! Learning about how the boats navigate crossing the bar into the harbour was fascinating as was the history of the area. We’ll be back another time to try our luck for that spectacular sunset!
Nice relaxing cruise ending with a beautiful sunset. Only drawback were the flock of gulls that trailed with us - approx 30-50 (not exaggerating). They were crazy to watch for the first bit, but they never left us - drawn to the on- board fish & chips. They did make for some great sunset photos. The history of the area was interesting to hear and some of the rock formations were beautiful.
