Meet the animals that inhabit the stunning Bay of Islands during this sailing trip. You will encounter various remarkable marine inhabitants, as well as numerous bird species. The experienced guides will provide insights into the animals, their natural habitats, and how to preserve them, as well as the history of this area.
In the morning, you will board the catamaran and set sail across the beautiful waters of the Bay of Islands. Breathe in the salty sea air, relax, enjoy the surroundings, and listen to the stories and explanations from the guides. Keep your eyes on the water, as you might spot the little penguin, gannets diving into the sea, or even dolphins.
There are approximately 144 islands in the Bay of Islands. Depending on the weather and wind conditions, you will anchor at different islands today. There are short walks to viewpoints, accompanied by bird songs, and you can snorkel and swim from the beaches. Afterwards, enjoy a delicious BBQ lunch.
The Bay of Islands is famous for the endangered bottlenose dolphins, or tuimelaars, who live here. They have plenty of food, as well as enough space to rest and breed. You will be on the lookout for these dolphins. There is always a safe distance maintained from the dolphins, and their behavior is continuously monitored. If they show signs of being disturbed, you will immediately sail away to give them their peace again.
During this sailing trip, you are free to help with the sailing if you wish.
