Welcome to Ecocruz!
Join our friendly crew and experience the Bay of Islands Maritime Park on a 3 day / 2 night coastal exploration aboard the 72ft yacht Manawanui. The emphasis of our cruises lies on the appreciation of the marine environment and the outdoors in a relaxed, down to earth atmosphere. The boat is fully equipped with sea kayaks, wetsuits, snorkelling and fishing gear as well as a support vessel to give passengers the opportunity to fully explore and experience the Maritime Park.
Ecocruz focuses on a range of outdoor activities which are designed to be fun and to also enable a greater level of interaction with the different maritime habitats. Sail the ocean, walk across towering cliffs, snorkel on stunning reefs, kayak around uninhabited islands and gather your own fresh seafood to experience the Maritime Park‘s rich diversity.
The sailing, kayaking, snorkelling, seafood gathering and walks, as well as the comfort of a small group and some good meals all form part of an unforgettable Bay of Islands experience.
