Cruise aboard the iconic Kewpie on a family‑friendly adventure.

Bring the whole family aboard Tauranga’s beloved harbour cruise vessel; over 70 years of history, beautifully restored, and full of character. It’s the perfect way to explore the sparkling waters and coastal highlights of Tauranga Harbour together.

Enjoy picture perfect views of Mount Maunganui from the water, plus the buzz of Tauranga’s busy port infrastructure. Large cargo ships and visiting cruise ships can often be seen up close as they move through the harbour.

Fancy a beach day? Hop off at Matakana Island for sandy strolls, swimming, fishing, or a picnic in paradise at no extra cost.
Drop‑offs are weather‑dependent and at the skipper’s discretion.

Kids under 5 travel free (conditions apply), making it an easy memory‑packed outing without stretching the budget. 

Dog lovers, your friendly pups are welcome aboard at no extra charge.

What you’ll see:

• The majestic Statue of Tangaroa

• Remote beaches, pine forests and island settlements

• Busy port activity, large ships and harbour operations

• Seasonal wildlife, blue penguins, sea birds, and NZ fur seals

Relax, explore, and reconnect all in one magical Tauranga Harbour experience.
