Loved this visit. Took a tour of Paihia & had booked a Kerkeri Discovery tour but as we had to be back on board by 3pm we couldn't do this tour. Would love to have taken more time to actually cruise a bit more of the Bay of Islands. Weather was perfect.

Bay of Island was absolutely beautiful, it was very busy the day we were there as there were 2 ships in so there was about 7500 descend on this small community but they coped well. The free shuttle buses were great. The only problem here is that we had to tender and we were number 23 so we did not get to shore until 12pm and had to leave to get back to the ship by 5pm but we still had plenty of time to have a look around. The tender took around 15 minutes to ferry people to shore and can only take 175 people at a time and they only used 6 tender boats I think so it took a long time.

It was very slow getting off the ship, but was a nice place to stroll round and catch the ferry over to Russell.

The Harbor Nature Cruise was excellent! Got to see dolphins swimming super close to our boat and seals with their pups on the rocks.

Excursion here was a large boat trip out through some of the islands to see Zane Greys hole in the rock. The conditions were perfect so the captain took us through the hole .Great trip with some beautiful sights we also saw penguins dolphins and stingrays . Highly recommend this tour too

Take a ferry to Russell Island. Enjoy the old whaler history and walk to the other side of the island to see a great crescent beach.
