New Zealand wildlife watching and walks
The Bay of Islands is known for its friendly dolphins. We are most likely to encounter these enchanting creatures on our cruise. Watch the birds diving for their dinner and the fairy penguins returning to their nests ashore.
The island reserves offer snorkelling and many bushwalks with amazing all-round views of the Bay of Islands.
