Whitianga: Cathedral Cove Thrilling Boat Tour, Caves & Snorkeling
The Experience
At 7.8 metres, Cave Cruzer is the only vessel of its size in Mercury Bay, small enough to navigate inside caves and blowholes larger boats cannot enter, open-topped so nothing blocks your view above. Between stops, Brian opens the throttle.
