New Zealand Yacht Charters

Charter vacations in the South Pacific cruising grounds of New Zealand benefit from an abundance of activities and itinerary choices offered by the combination of the North and South Islands. With the Tasman Sea to the west and the Pacific Ocean to the east, the sailing conditions are excellent and each year play host to the prestigious superyacht regatta, the New Zealand Millennium Cup.

New Zealand Luxury Yacht Charter Guide

Both the North Island and South Island of New Zealand feature coastlines peppered with a canvas of bays, harbours, fjords and stunning beaches. Renting a private crewed motor yacht, sailing boat or expedition yacht here is a fantastic way to explore the breath taking scenery any time of year, from the glaciers and snow-capped mountains in winter to the winding vineyards and semi-tropical beaches in the summer.

New Zealand is the perfect destination for active charterers looking to partake in adrenaline fuelled activities on water and land as well as try out all of the toys carried on board your charter yacht. Known as the ‘white knuckle capital of the world’, there are endless opportunities to create an experience of a lifetime as well as enjoy cruising conditions and sheltered anchorages that have attracted sailing enthusiasts for hundreds of years.

Luxury Yacht Charter Itineraries in New Zealand

New Zealand’s South Island is the less populated, more rugged of the two and is ideal for more relaxed exploration of the spectacular Marlborough Wine Country and a varied landscape. In contrast, the North Island is home to some of the world’s most vibrant modern cities such as Auckland which offers a great selection of shops, bars, restaurants and busy harbours. Auckland is also the gateway to 144 islands and bays of the Bay of Islands which can create a comprehensive and varied itinerary all of their own.

Cruising Ground: Cruising Guide: Abel Tasman

French pass to nelson to farewell spit.

The Abel Tasman area’s main claim to fame is it’s beautiful national park - comprising some 40 miles of sheltered and varied coastline – golden sand beaches are interspersed with outcrops of enormous boulders covered with fur seals. Some of it’s better known beaches stretch for miles, while others are hidden away and so tiny the sunbathers would have to be stacked.

Quiet estuaries and native bush clad hillsides are home to penguins, herons and all manner of birdlife while a stream of trampers grunt their way along the world famous walking tracks, camping grounds and lodges. It is a great place to drop off any crew members in need of exercise, a regime easily enforced by collecting them further along the coast.

New Zealand Luxury Yacht Charter

New Zealand Yacht Charter - Beautiful mountains by Milford Sound, New Zealand

Cruising grounds for adventure seekers await on a New Zealand yacht charter

From incredible geographical diversity and cultural attractions to stunning landscapes, the two islands of New Zealand provide enchanting cruising opportunities.

The dual islands of New Zealand offer an unparalleled multi-center cruising destination for luxury yachts. From their sporting and cultural attractions to the mountains, deep fjords, rainforests, glaciers, and geothermal pools, no other cruising ground offers such a vast and varied landscape.  Whether your itinerary takes in the marine reserves and islands lying off North Island or heads to South Island to glide across Marlborough Sounds, the best of New Zealand is all about taking to the water.

Boasting extensive coastlines, diverse natural landscapes, and untouched native forests, the two islands of New Zealand are perfect adventure cruising grounds. North Island is home to Auckland, aka “City of Sails,” where fine restaurants and shops abound. The capital of Wellington hosts numerous galleries and museums, while the Bay of Islands is a subtropical maritime park with an abundance of marine life. Alternatively, South Island guarantees flawless sailing conditions, restful retreats ashore and great sporting opportunities for the adventurous charterer. Home to Queenstown —  the country’s adventure capital — and Marlborough Sounds, it promises idyllic cruising with a backdrop of glorious mountain landscapes.

The majority of New Zealand’s landmass is south of Auckland, but the northern parts should not be missed. The landscape is dotted with subtropical forests, beaches, and historic settlements that will leave you in awe. The Bay of Islands is an idyllic spot for watersports and big-game fishing. Further south, you’ll enjoy the clear waters, fjords, and coves along Marlborough Sounds, which offer stunning anchorages. While the scenery alone of South Island is worth traveling to see – some of the most spectacular cruising grounds in the world can be found around the fjords of Milford Sound.

DAY 4 – Coromandel Peninsula to Great Barrier Island

Cruise to the furthermost reaches of the Hauraki Gulf to Great Barrier Island. Barrier is the largest island off the coast of New Zealand’s North Island and provides beautiful sheltered anchorages to the west. Visited by Captain Cook in 1769, the island was so named because it was believed to be sheltering the Hauraki Gulf from the storms of the Pacific.

DAY 5 – Great Barrier Island to Poor Knights Islands

Formed from a chain of volcanoes that eroded millions of years ago, the underwater caves, tunnels and arches of Poor Knights Islands are fed by a warm current. The subtropical reefs are home to sharks, coral fish, turtles and orca, and on occasion you might even spot migrating whales.

luxury yacht charter new zealand

DAYS 6 & 7 – Poor Knights Islands to Bay of Islands

The Bay of Islands comprises 144 islands, the majority of which are home to some of the most stunning beaches in the world. It was here that Queen Victoria’s government and the indigenous Maori chiefs signed the document ceding the islands to the British Empire in 1840. Spend a few days exploring the archipelago before cruising overnight to Auckland to disembark.

The North Island generally has a temperate maritime climate, with mild temperatures and moderate rainfall throughout the year.
