Great time
We had the perfect (still) weather for our boat cruise. Sooo beautiful. The dolphins seem familiar with the boat and came right up to us. Were able to see everything - bird rock with seals & gannets, and went through the hole in the rock a number of times.

Hole in the Rock 10/10
Had an amazing time on our Fullers Great Sight half day cruise out to the Hole in the Rock! Even got to see a couple of fur seals. Definitely recommend

Excellent trip!
Great Captain and staff onboard. Was a stunning day and definitely worth doing. I highly recommend it. The hole in the rock was awesome! We went right through it. No dolphins sighted on this trip though but saw them on another one that I did a couple of years ago.

Amazing Tour!
A MUST visiting NZ and the Bay of Islands. Our tour was amazing and we saw heaps of dolphins (twice) and just one seal. But still - amazing nature and we were also very lucky with the weather. Lunch on the island was also very filling and enough. Only the older guy at the bar was literally the rudest person I have ever met in NZ!
