A Cruise Through History:
Guided Cruises on the Hokianga Harbour


Colours of New Zealand PLUS: 5 night package - $NZ495

The Hokianga Harbour is generally accepted as the residential place of Kupe the very first voyager, and Maori, to discover New Zealand over 1,000 years ago. Kupe and his followers settled in the harbour with its protected waters and abundance of food. Later some of the earliest European settlers came to the Hokianga and small communities were formed on the harbours edge.

This beautiful environment is rich in history and spectacular scenery. From the vast kauri forests to giant sand dunes, the landscape is home to small communities and ancient sites of significant interest. It is a place that is as important today to modern Maori as it was to their ancestors all those years ago.

Crossings Hokianga follows in the footsteps and relives the journey of this country's most influential visitor, Kupe. NZ's first discoverer 1000 years ago called Hokianga his home so come with us to discover the natural beauty of the Hokianga Harbour and share thousands of years of history through our stories.
