Swim with the Dolphins Cruise in the Bay of Islands departs Auckland - Auckland, New Zealand

Depart Auckland this morning and head north over the Auckland Harbor Bridge to enjoy spectacular rural and coastal scenery en-route to the Bay of Islands. Directly on your arrival in Paihia, board the Dolphin Adventures Eco Marine Safari.

Dolphins are one of the earth's most fascinating creatures and the Bay of Islands are blessed with their presence all year round. The Bay has the warmest waters in New Zealand, perfect for swimming with Dolphins.

Delight in watching Dolphins as they interact with you. The staff have years of experience finding Dolphins in the Bay and an intimate knowledge of their behavior. The small vessel allows for closer interaction as you see and hear Dolphins and Whales from the low viewing deck and the underwater microphone.

See Bottlenose and Common Dolphins, Baleen Whales, Orca, Seals, Fish, Penguins and other bird and sea life. Relax on Urupukapuka Island after a complimentary hot shower and hot drink (time permitting).

You will then return to Paihia at which time you reboard your coach and return to Auckland.

Dolphin Sightseeing Guarantee - If you do not see Dolphins or Whales you will receive a ticket to go again or NZ$20.00 (Adult) or NZ$10.00 (Child) refund in cash on the day of your cruise.
