WE ARE CURRENTLY NOT OPERATING. After 25 amazing years, we have parted with our beloved Manawanui. We are now taking some time out to reflect and see what the future may hold. We will be back at some stage and in some form. A big thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years. We hope you enjoyed your time aboard as much as we did.
Welcome to Ecocruz, the original Bay of Islands multi day sailing cruise - enjoy the Bay the way the locals do!
Join our friendly crew and discover the Bay of Islands Maritime Park on a 3 day/2 night sailing adventure aboard the Manawanui, a 22-metre ketch. This is a down-to-earth nature cruise, taking you off the beaten track to give you a real taste of the marine environment and the beautiful landscapes of this unique coastal region in the Far North of New Zealand.
Explore the ocean under sail, visit uninhabited islands, kayak and snorkel the clear waters to see amazing marine life, walk deserted beaches - or just sit back and relax!
