Fishing Charters/ Scuba Diving:
Any way you look at it, the worst day fishing is better than the best day working.
Every day on the water is uniquely different. It is unusual not to encounter dolphins or whales and the myriad of sea birds and marine life will be evident making a trip out a memorable and enjoyable experience.
The Hauraki Gulf boasts some of the finest recreational areas in New Zealand including some of the finest fishing.
The Charters available from Gulf Harbour offer to make your fishing experience rewarding and fun-filled. Nothing pleases them more than to give people the ability to thoroughly enjoy their time on the outstanding waters so close to Auckland City. We have it all!
Scuba diving is also right on your doorstep the Hauraki Gulf Maritime Park is a magical playground of 50 islands and countless reef structures right on Auckland’s doorstep.
Many of the islands are recreation reserves popular with day-trippers and others are conservation sanctuaries for endangered bird species.
The sheltered waters are enclosed by an ancient volcanic chain of mountains along the Coromandel Peninsula and Great Barrier Island. A great variety of snorkelling and diving sites in relatively shallow seas provides an irresistible lure to underwater enthusiasts. Marine mammals are often sighted in the outer Gulf including Humpback, Minke, Bryde’s, Killer and Pilot whales as well as dolphins.
“It’s a real sense of freedom. You’re effectively weightless when you’re in the water so once you’ve learnt to dive properly and got your buoyancy under control, it’s sort of like flying.”
