Dolphins in the Hauraki Gulf

We see dolphins on over 90% of our safaris!

Dolphins often choose to swim alongside our vessel and ride the bow wave. This is a spectacular sight as they leap in and out of the water. In the Hauraki Gulf, you’re most likely to spot the common dolphin!. From time to time we may be lucky enough to encounter the bottlenose dolphin, orca (which actually belong to the dolphin family) or other oceanic species of dolphins such as pilot whales and false killer whales.
