Goat Island Experience Guided Boat Snorkel Tour

Snorkeling at Goat Island is more than just a swim — it’s stepping into a living, underwater world that’s unlike anywhere else in New Zealand. As the country’s very first marine reserve, Goat Island is teeming with life: from shimmering schools of Blue Maomao to giant Snapper, Eagle Rays, and even the occasional dolphin or orca passing by! The Guided Boat Snorkel Tour is tailored for advanced snorkellers with expert instructors. Join us for an EPIC half day snorkel mission aboard our dive boat Ocean Tales. Come and create some incredible summer stories and explore our amazing coastline. You'll get to snorkel off a boat in some of the best snorkel locations. You’ll explore the clear waters before venturing further to experience the magic up close. With all gear included — and yours to use for the rest of the day — this is the perfect way to fall in love with the ocean, discover New Zealand’s top snorkel spot, and tick off one of Auckland’s top 10 must-do adventures.
