Considered one of the most biologically and geographically diverse marine parks in the world, 22 species of marine mammal have been identified in the Hauraki Gulf, almost 1/3 of the entire world's population of species.
Every Safari is different but all include:
• Dolphins viewed on over 90% of trips, whales viewed on 75%
• Cruise and commentary, culture and history of Auckland's Hauraki Gulf
• Fully licensed bar and snacks available for purchase
You may be spellbound by the spectacle of a feeding frenzy involving sea birds, whales, and dolphins or see small pods of dolphins playing around the boat. Wherever the most exciting whale and dolphin activity is, we aim to find it for
you. Plus show you some of the most significant cultural and historical parts of this amazing maritime park.
With six years of continued scientific programmes undertaken onboard, our crew are probably New Zealand's most experienced and knowledgeable. On Auckland's Whale and Dolphin Safari you will experience the Gulf from the most comfortable and stable whale watching vessel in New Zealand. Our luxury 20m high speed catamaran is designed specifically for the sea conditions of this unique area.
