The Pure Cruise Experience

A little taste of what to expect when cruising on Lake Rotoiti with us.

Scenic Coves

Our talented skippers will gently guide your vessel into stunning, bush-clad coves where you can relax with a meal and drinks, take a swim, soak up the sun, or head ashore to explore the bush or picnic on the beach.

With so many beautiful bays around Lake Rotoiti, there’s always a sheltered spot to enjoy the serenity—whatever the weather.

Delicious Meal Option & Licensed Bar

Complement your lake experience with a delicious BYO meal or choose a light lunch from our menu, paired with a drink from our licensed bar on board. 
 

We offer a light lunch option on the Rotoiti Explorer to suit any occasion – whether it’s a laid-back outing or a special celebration.

Geothermal Wonders

Geothermal activity is visible in many parts of the lake. Watch steam rising from hidden fumaroles as we cruise past, or go ashore to sink your toes into warm pumice sand. You can even soak in the gentle heat of a natural spring-fed stream – a perfect way to unwind in nature.

Glow Worm Caves

An undeniable favorite for those who love adventure is swimming into one of our caves to experience seeing the glow worms. The caves are waist deep once inside and are a truly unique New Zealand experience.

Tree Jumping

Challenge yourself to step out over a deep bay on the limb of a pōhutukawa tree, grab hold of the overhead ropes, and take the plunge into the lake below.

Historic Food Storage Caves

Lake Rotoiti is home to many significant historic sites, some of which can be seen right from the boat. Our crew are always happy to share the stories and legends behind these special places as you cruise by.

Heli and Float Plane Transfers

Arrive in style by helicopter or floatplane. We have access to private heli-landing sites all around the lake, or for something truly special, meet us on the water and transfer straight from floatplane to vessel.
