Crossings Hokianga Must Do Activities
Hokianga Harbour Cruises
Crossings Hokianga conducts guided boat cruises of the Hokianga harbour, an environment rich in history and a landscape home to small communities and in years gone by to NZ's first discoverer. This beautiful natural environment is rich in history and spectacular scenery. From the vast kauri forests to giant sand dunes, the landscape is home to ancient sites of significant interest. It is a place that is as important today to modern Maori and European as it was to their ancestors all those years ago. Our morning, afternoon and evening cruises require minimum numbers so are best suited for small to large groups. So what are you waiting for? Book a Tour and follow in the footsteps of early Maori and Europeans settlers, Discover Hokianga.
Sport Fishing Hokianga
The mighty Hokianga is a special place rich in history and beauty and more recently has been discovered for its West Coast Game Fishing grounds. Not many have experienced this special place and all it has to offer. Just 15 minutes from the jetty you can capture huge stripped marlin, yellow fin tuna, kingfish, snapper and giant bass just to name a few. The stripped marlin caught off the Hokianga, are some of the biggest in the world today. Beyond the majestic mountain of sand the sea life is abundant. It is not unusual to see dolphins swimming along side the boat, seals lazing on the surface, huge sunfish and marlin feeding on unsuspecting shoals of small fish.
