At 7.8 metres, Cave Cruzer is the only vessel of its size in Mercury Bay, small enough to navigate inside caves and blowholes larger boats cannot enter, open-topped so nothing blocks your view above. Between stops, Brian opens the throttle.
You will cover 24 kilometres of protected Coromandel coastline at speed. Cave Cruzer goes inside the ancient blowholes and cave systems that line the route. Other boats do not.
Cathedral Cove is the centrepiece, Te Hoho Rock, the Sleeping Dragon, Narnia filming locations, seen from the water. Further along, Whale Cave and the hole in the rock at Poikeke Island are landmarks that only make sense from the water.
The tour heads inside Orua, New Zealand's second-largest sea cave, where Brian plays music so you can hear what 700 cubic metres of rock does to sound.
Optional snorkelling and rock jumping available, subject to conditions.

5.00Had a great day today on the water today with Brian! It was a beautiful flat day, his tour commentary was interesting and entertaining and he did his best to include as many thrills as he could given there was no chop to play on. Saw tons of fish, water was warm for snorkelling. Highlight was definitely dolphins in the bay on the way back to Whitianga. He went over and above to make sure we had an amazing time. Would recommend taking a tour with Cave Cruzer!
Fun on the Ocean
