The huge popularity of the Bay of Islands as a holiday destination for the ‘Kiwi’ locals speaks for itself. The Bay of Islands is a stunning destination situated on New Zealand’s North Island and is about 3 ½ hour drive from Auckland. It consists of 144 beautiful and dramatic islands and is perfect for those seeking a beach holiday with plenty of activities such as swimming with dolphins, nature walks and fishing on your door step.

Description
Perhaps the area’s most famous attraction is the ‘Hole in the Rock’ formation – also known as Piercy Island and situated at the tip of Cape Brett. There are many organised boat trips and cruises that will take you to this striking place, where you will cruise the sheltered waters of the Bay of Islands, hopefully catching sight of wild dolphins, whales and penguins, before the skipper navigates the boat right through the hole (weather and water permitting).
Another lovely spot to visit is Rainbow Falls in KeriKeri. There are several pathways that will take you to various vantage points to get the best views of this exquisite waterfall in all its glory. The unspoilt island of Urupukapuka is also not to be missed and can be visited on a day trip either by water taxi or an organised boat trip. If you venture to the top of the island, you will be rewarded with fabulous panoramic views. Down by the beautiful beach there are clear blue waters for you to paddle in.

We have used eShores for a number of years and they are brilliant. We usually deal with Kadie and she always goes that extra mile for us. Would highly recommend them for all travel arrangements.

My husband and I have been using eshores since 2013 and would highly recommend them for amazing tailor made holidays without any hidden costs. The ability to build exactly what we want every time and help guide us when we are undecided without making it feel like any effort is invaluable. Shoutout to Dave who puts up with my indecisiveness and hits it out of the park every time.

Andy at Eshores has been extremely helpful on the times we have have used Eshores to book our holidays. As is usual, we have made many changes to our original choices of hotels and schedule and Andy has always been polite and efficient in dealing with the issues. Great choice of travel agent.

From the moment Rob picked up the phone he has provided a truly outstanding service. Rob was happy to listen to what we wanted, provided a schedule to meet our needs at a very competitive cost. There was no pressure applied, left us to mull over our options. We asked to tweak our schedule and again, Rob was so accommodating and dealing with him was a pleasure. The after sales service from the admin team has been equally impressive. Would thoroughly recommend.
