A Jet Ski Expedition Through Bay of Islands Charm

Kickstart your 2.5 hour adventure by riding your jet ski to the historic site where Captain Cook first landed, against the backdrop of the breathtaking Bay of Islands. From there, your skipper guides you through the shimmering blue waters of Stingray Bay before venturing out to sea to catch spectacular views of the rugged Cape Brett coastline. Enjoy the exhilaration of open water exploration and scenic coastal cruising in one exciting ride.

Next, glide across the bay to Urupukapuka Island, where you’ll dock for a well-earned break. Here, the only island café in the Bay of Islands awaits—treat yourself to fresh local fare or a refreshing kiwi brew while soaking up the tranquil island atmosphere. The journey concludes with a leisurely return to Paihia, weaving through charming bays that reveal the hidden coastal beauty of the mainland.
