Skipper Glen and Crew very knowledgeable. Felt safe at all times Great cruising above and under the waters of The Moana Nui.
We spent a lovely day with yukon! Crew is very professional and nice, boat is quite big and almost nobody around the islands. The trip allow us to enjoy the beauty and the story of the islands and also good snorkeling. Lot of different fish small and big. Very interesting and different than our previous underwater experiences :-)
We had a fabulous time. The kids loved the trip out, the amazing variety of fish and exploring around the rocks. The trip leader was very kind, and helpful, the gear he gave us was great. He also took us around the islands, showing us the gannet colony. Whilst this trip is probably more for divers, you will not be dissappointed snorkeling and you will see a lot just with a snorkel and enjoying the fantastic service.
Thank you so much for your great review and kind words! We are glad to hear you all enjoyed your day out and the kids faces say it all :) Love that photo!! Hope you return to see us again, until then, take care and best regards from the Team at Yukon Dive & Snorkel, Tutukaka NZ.
Professional, knowledgeable, and fun. I can’t recommend enough. The skipper brought us to two amazing dive spots. The swells were fairly big but his and his crews experience still led to great views and spots. Very fun and can’t wait to go back!
Thank you for your great review and kind words about our trip! We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your day out with us at the Poor Knights, it was a pleasure to have you onboard. We look forward to your return, until then, take care and best regards from the Team at Yukon Dive & Snorkel, Tutukaka NZ.
