Great day out around the Islands
Nice boutique yacht cruise around the Islands. Stopover for a couple of hours at one of the beautiful bays, clear blue water and white sand. Lunch provided by the lovely girls, if you like meat you won't find any on the lunch plate! Def a vegetarian dish we received, not our preferred dish of choice but everything else was top notch.

Great day
Great way to spend the day around the bay of islands. Nat was an awesome host sharing her knowledge about the area and showing some beautiful spots. WE were luckly enough to see dolphins quite close to the boat - unique experience! Highly recommended
