Cruise New Zealand offers private luxury yacht charters from Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour. Explore the Hauraki Gulf in style with personalised service, stunning views and unforgettable on-water experiences.

Cruise New Zealand’s two premium catamarans offer the ideal setting for a bespoke journey. Super yacht Rua Moana - meaning two waters in te reo Māori - can accommodate up to 60 people with ease for half or full-day charters, and eight guests for overnight and extended cruises for further afield. Important business meetings, weddings and milestone birthdays are a specialty. Whether you're seeking a few hours of harbour cruising, a corporate function with impact, or a multi-day escape along New Zealand’s stunning coastline.

Perfect for fishing, water activities, sightseeing or simply relaxing in luxury, these exclusive charters combine local expertise with the art of true Kiwi manaakitanga (hospitality). With over 35 years in the high-end tourism industry, Director and Captain Craig Armstrong brings a wealth of knowledge and personal care to every charter.
