About

Our 50ft sailing catamaran, Carino NZ, offers a comfortable and eco-friendly way to explore the bay and its diverse wildlife. Licensed for dolphin watching and marine mammal research, we enjoy sharing with our guests about the importance of responsible wildlife watching.
Throughout the cruise, you will have the opportunity to see dolphins, penguins, gannets, and seabirds up close. Our certified responsible operator status ensures that we prioritize the safety and wellbeing of these animals. Remember, they are completely wild. One of the highlights of our cruise is the chance to visit an island, where you can snorkel, swim, and explore the beautiful coastal location. We also offer a delicious BBQ lunch on board, along with a cash bar.
