What you can expect

Get onboard the 25-minute ferry ride, taking you from Auckland to the nearby Rangitoto Island for a day of exploration. See the striking symmetrical cone of the island rise 260 metres above sea level. The ferry ride across the Hauraki Gulf offers the opportunity to see the cities skyline from a new perspective and enjoy the panoramic views.

A paradise for hikers and nature lovers, the island offers plenty of bush walks and tours for a full day of adventure. Choose to follow the popular Summit Track as it winds through the lava fields and lush native forest, ending on the mountains peak. Or take the side walk, guiding you through the mysterious lava caves, best to bring a flashlight for this. Whatever you decide to spend your day exploring, know that the return trip in the comfortable ferry is scheduled. The Rangitoto ferry is a convenient and quick way to get over to the island hassle-free.
