About

Have a large family, work group or bunch of friends you’d like to get together for a fish and cruise around the Waitemata Harbour and inner Hauraki Gulf? Our flagship vessel for large fishing charter groups, Koru, is a versatile fishing and cruising machine!

She is perfectly set-up for large group fishing charters with ample fishing space (suitable for up to 25 people fishing at once) on the lower deck, plus a great upper deck to kick back, relax and enjoy Auckland’s stunning backyard! Throw in the large BBQ, practical kitchen space, and our friendly crew, and you truly have the best option available for a large fishing charter group in Auckland!

• Koru has capacity for up to 40 people plus Crew. With a large covered deck, up to 25 can fish at once with plenty of quality viewing space available on the large upper deck. • Note - the first 20 passengers are included in the price. Beyond 20 people, an additional fee is payable per person (see below). • Don’t have your own fishing gear? No problem, you can hire ours (prices below). • Charters depart Z-Pier, 31 Westhaven Drive, St Mary’s Bay from 7am (unless arranged otherwise). • Not sure of the final number in your group? No problem, we can add people right up to 24hrs before the charter! • Catering is available with options from standard ‘lunchboxes’ through to a custom menu. Alcohol (in reasonable quantities) may be brought onto the boats, A BYO alcohol license fee & bar staff fee of $500 applies per charter.

What to Bring

• Sunglasses, sunscreen, a warm jacket and a hat – the weather can change quickly at sea so come prepared; • Lunch and a drink (if you have not booked a catered Charter); • Rod and tackle (if you have not booked rental gear or an all inclusive Charter); and • Your sense of adventure and a smile!
