COME AND FISH NEW ZEALAND'S HAURAKI GULF

We offer clients a wide range of sport fishing escapes that involve trolling, casting and jigging the remote outer Hauraki Gulf for yellowtail kingfish, trevally, snapper, kahawai, tuna and hapuka to name just a
few of the species that we target.

In the comfort of our 500-ton luxury ship you can be sure you will receive professional service and important local knowledge from our crew and guides. Your ship accommodates a maximum of 20 guests in 10 very spacious and individually designed en-suite cabins to allow guests the space seldom found on a ship of this size.

Onboard facilities include satellite TV, iridium phones, Shimano and Sage tackle, 4 fishing tenders pus a 5-seat helicopter. We carry a crew of 8 including our professional chef to see to your every need. A fine wine cellar plus a wide range of spirits, beer and juices are complimentary while onboard.

Island Escape Cruises invite you to take a fishing trip and discover our magnificent cruising region, all within easy reach of New Zealand’s bustling Auckland city.

Our fishing excursions cater for both fishing and non-fishing guests and include first class excursions led by expert guides who travel with you and uncover the mysteries of Auckland's Hauraki Gulf.

Whilst the anglers are enjoying their fishing trip on our guided tender boats, our non-fishing guests can luxuriate in a gourmet picnic ashore, relax with a good book in the library or laze on a steamer deck chair in the sun... you decide...
