Loads of dolphins
Had an excellent time. Got to see lots of dolphins, some sharks, stingray. It was fun to also get to have a dip in a beautiful bay

Awe inspiring, fun day! Awesome crew
This was an absolutely awesome day on the water. From the moment we stepped up onto the quay to the moment we stepped off the boat at the end of the day, Brandon and Heidi were friendly and professional, welcoming and informative, we felt like we were part of their 'adventure family'. We enjoyed cruising, searching for any marine life and then the excitement of spotting something, e.g. hammerhead shark, turtle, dolphins, penguins and other bird life. At the island stopover some also managed to see a variety of stingray. We felt thoroughly saturated with two amazing dolphin pod encounters. Brandon's information and care for these majestic creatures while we quietly cruised or paused amongst them was excellent. Heidi's alert eyes spotting the dolphin pods and her excitement as she shared the experience and knowledge was very enjoyable. We thoroughly enjoyed our day and would very highly recommend this tour! Thanks Brandon & Heidi. Helen & Gordon

Amazing experience
It is a nice day out and really nice to have the amazing crew on board. We are so lucky to see the absolutely beautiful creature of the sea. Along with 100+ dolphins we also see a hammer shark and several penguins. as a person who often get sea sick while sail, this trip is so comfort and I did not feel sickness at all. Photos taken by me and my friend.

Belle expérience
J'ai bien profité de cette journée. L'équipe était très accueillante et arrangeante. Je n'osait pas faire du kayak toute seule et le jeune homme m'a accompagnée. De ce fait, j'ai pu bien voir la baie de Mayor Island et, en particulier, l'otarie qui y nageait et il nous laissait approcher, disons à un bon mètre. Nous avons croisé des dauphins trois fois. Ils suivaient le bateau, et, tandis que j'étais assise sur la proue du bateau, ils étaient juste en-dessous de moi. Fabuleux!
