About Auckland & Hauraki Gulf
Auckland Harbour and the Hauraki Gulf are some of the best places in New Zealand to visit. First off you really are spoilt for choice when it comes to water activities; fishing, kayaking, sailing, jet boating, snorkelling, island hopping, dolphin and whale watching – it’s all offered and here at Boat Hire Experts we have some great boat hire options for you to choose from for your very own private cruise experience.
The Hauraki Gulf is made up of over 50 islands with the larger ones offering some amazing things to see and do.
Great Barrier Island is the biggest island featuring white sandy beaches and is a popular surf spot. There are also plenty of hikes, with the hike towards Mt. Hobson providing a challenge with the reward of jaw-dropping views.
Waiheke Island is popular location for wine lovers due to the wineries that are a must when here. Again, this island boasts stunning beaches and is a great place for rest and relaxation.
Motutapu Island is somewhat of a hidden gem; green hills, serenity, wonderful beaches and history make for great reasons to visit.
Rotoroa Island is the place for those more interested in arts and heritage. Museums, walking trails and sculptures are reasons to experience this island.
Tiriti Matangi Island features a sanctuary for endangered birdlife. It’s also home of the Takahe, the flightless bird that has clung to existence and become a New Zealand icon for being a survivor. For the birdwatching enthusiast.
Kawau Island boasts crystal clear water and a bit of history too. The infamous Mansion House resides on Kawau Island, previously owned by one of the most controversial political figures, Sir George Grey. If you’re lucky enough to visit by private boat you can explore broken islands surrounding Kawau as well.
Rangitoto Island is a must see for tourists visiting, but we guarantee most Aucklanders are yet to walk to the top, despite most of us looking at it every single day. If you’re keen for a big hike – this is it.
Motuihe Island is known to have some of the best sandy beaches in the Hauraki Gulf. With rock pools, clear waters and sheltered anchorage spots for boats, the island is popular for visitors. It was previously a quarantine station, prisoner of war camp and naval training base.
Rakino Island is a great choice to get away from it all, for some isolation and peace and quiet. This island is home to only 16 permanent residents and they pride themselves in the conservation of this beauty so be sure to show you utmost respect when visiting. It’s definitely one of the islands that is better accessed by private boat. Snorkelling is also a must as the crystal clear waters allow you to see some of the best marine life.
