Cathedral Peak - We had a wonderful experience. We turned up early and was an accommodated onto an earlier slot on the boat trip. We learned about the marine life within the coromandel peninsula, visited the caves and had photo opportunities.. Our guide Ryan was very informative..

Well run tour - We were pushed back a day due to bad weather, but the communication was clear from the team & we had an awesome trip the next day. The whole coastline is amazing with no one stand out feature. It was all brilliant. The commentary from Oscar was great too. Would highly recommend.
