Navigate through enchanting coastal islands, vibrant reefs, and towering sea caves. One of the highlights is the world-famous Cathedral Cove, known for its iconic archway and stunning beach. As you glide through these waters, keep an eye out for the diverse marine life that calls this area home, including playful dolphins, curious seals, and the charming little blue penguins. While sightings of these creatures are not guaranteed, the chance to see them in their natural habitat adds to the thrill of the journey.

At the summit, be captivated by panoramic views over the island-studded Hauraki Gulf and the lush Coromandel landscape.

Two underground fissures release water at temperatures as high as 64°C (147°F) at a rate of up to 15 liters per minute. This mineral-rich water, brimming with calcium, magnesium, potassium, fluorine, bromine, and silica, creates a soothing and therapeutic spa experience right on the beach.
