Sailing in the Bay Of Islands
New Zealand is renowned for some of the best sailing conditions in the world hosting pristine scenery and clear clean waters.
Sailors from New Zealand have been welcomed through out the world for their skills and experience.
Auckland and the Bay of Islands, where Kingfisher sails is where the majority of sailing is enjoyed. The Bay Of Islands also has the advantage of a mild warm climate, which means we can sail all year round – no wonder it is referred to as the winterless north.
On leaving Russell sail out through the many islands in the Bay of Islands stopping for lunch in a sheltered picturesque bay. With a small number of guests we can be flexible on destination and preferences such as fishing, swimming, long walks on the beach or feeling the breeze in your hair as you try your hand at sailing - find out why New Zealanders are so good at this sport
Our summer season is from December through to April with our white sandy beaches not crowded and plenty of space to relax and swim.
