Snorkeling Trip

We are lucky in the Bay of Islands to have some of the best snorkelling in New Zealand. We have a marine reserve in Deep Water Cove with some beautiful reef sites, abundant fish life, and spectacular scenery. We are also fortunate with this type of reserve to be able to feed the fish. This means that with very little effort, you can have Sandaggers Wrasse and large Snapper coming very close while snorkelling over the reef. Our water temperature ranges from 18c to 23c in the summertime. We provide comfortable 5mm wetsuits so you can stay in all day if you wish. You are also welcome to bring your own equipment.
