Testimonials
“Would highly recommend this sailing tour to anyone visiting the area – it’s the perfect way to experience Cathedral Cove’s beauty from the water. A truly memorable day on the water that we’ll never forget!”

“Mat took us on a four hour private charter to Cathedral Cove and where the winds favored. He coordinated well ahead to ensure the best experience with weather. We had a fabulous time! I’d definitely recommend the charcuterie option, which was delicious! Mat and crew were very professional, kind and informative. I even got to help tack back n forth a few times, which was a plus. Hands down, worth every penny and I look forward to visiting again and booking with Mat for another sail. 5 stars!”

“An incredible day we still talk about 5 years later! From booking to drop off Mat was professional, attentive and clearly loved what he did. He cared so much about showing us around this little piece of paradise in NZ that we felt like friends/family out for a boat day. Sandy beaches, blue waters and beautiful landscapes everywhere you look. Swimming with the marine life was amazing also. Since we had such an incredible day out we are now in the process of booking a return visit in 2025 with more guests from overseas. We can’t wait to blow them away also! This is a must do when in the Coromandel.”

“We were fortunate enough to hire the boat as a private charter – we were two couples. Our wonderful crew, Hamish and Rebecca, let us choose our destination. We elected to head out to Great Mercury Island and spend time in Peachgrove Bay. The clarity of the water out there has to be seen to be believed, not to mention the pristine white sand beach – it was absolutely stunning and totally lived up to all expectations! Being a keen sailer, my husband was in his element on the tiller for the majority of the trip, while we just chilled on the beanbags – they also provided blankets for when it cooled down a bit and there’s the bonus of a great onboard loo.”
