About

Come sailing in the classic style. Whle sailing, you'll enjoy hearing Captain Ray tell you the history of Akaroa, from the first Maori arrivals, through to the French, Germans and English. You'll be amazed to hear dolphins before you see them, hear penguins calling to each other, and cormorant's diving and flying.

With the engine switched off, and no loudspeakers to annoy, our cruise is the most environmentally sustainable in Akaroa. It's never crowded with a maximum of 20 guests.

We've been number 1 on Trip Advisor for all of 2010, and we're still number one today. Come sail with us and experience why. We guarantee you'll have an exciting, memorable cruise. Visit our website and book online today. PS: Don't forget your camera.
