Fantastic!

We were booked on the dinner cruise but weather was forecast to be pretty rough so we got a call to ask if we wanted to join the day cruise instead & I'm glad we did as it was fantastic. Starting the day with a ride in the dinghy from the pier to the boat was a fun experience & once we got on the boat, we grabbed the beanbags at the front for a comfy, leisurely cruise out of the bay. Drinks flowed & lots of laughs were had before we anchored just of a private beach, which we headed to for a swim...even got given a chilly bin with a couple of drinks each. After that it was time for a bbq lunch back on the boat before starting back to Paihia. Dessert was served on the way back which just topped off a fabulous day. The crew were amazing & so friendly. We would definitely do this again if we are back in Paihia.

HI Emmah, thanks for making the time to review......it really does help a new business. For me the food is the easy bit and combining this with the scenery really does make a memorable day. All the best Russell and Karen

Amazing times!

We had such an amazing time on this cruise! We were booked for the dinner cruise, but we had a call from Russell - the skipper - in the morning, to advise that the weather was meant to be getting bad, and did we want to come on the lunch cruise at no extra cost! So accommodating, and it was definitely worth it! Lunch was amazing, and the trip around the bays was incredible. We even got dropped off to a beautiful cove for a couple of hours for a swim and sunbathe - complete with a chilly bag of drinks made up especially for us. We couldn't have asked for better service. A great day out on the water, and a must do when in Paihia!

Good sailing experience

If you haven’t sailed before or never took boat at BOI, Russell and Karen’s SunKiss would be a good experience. Well organised trip, comfortable riding, nice bbq lunch and desserts. Warm service and good services. It’s not a thrilling or challenging trip but peaceful and calm. Very relaxing if you have been busy at work.

Exceeded Expectations - great tour, delicious food

Good length boat tour with local history commentary. Full three course dinner made by a professional chef using local fare. Weather was fantastic and we had a little extra time to stop at a small beach, jump off the sail boat, and go for a swim. Very accommodating hosts that are also very easy to talk with. We would've booked for the next evening too if we had more time in the area.
