Stewart Island Adventures
Discover Stewart Island, the Birding Capital of NZ, with the highest number of readily available birds in the country.
Join us aboard our luxury 20 metre catamaran, the “Rakiura Explorer” for a one of a kind nature extravaganza; the Nature Explored Cruise, departing Halfmoon Bay daily.
As you cruise the shores of remote islands, you will see pelagic birds such as, albatross (6 species), cormorant (5), penguin (3), petrels and shearwaters (many species), brown suka and other, along with seals and sea lions. We will continue our cruise to Stewart Island’s crown jewel; the native bird sanctuary of "Ulva Island" where you will enjoy a short walk among rare and endangered birds and plants.
While on Stewart Island, stay in our Kaka Cottages nestled among the native trees and ferns.
