Huge catamaran sailing - A perfect afternoon. Fair winds with plenty of time to enjoy the spectacular coastline, snorkel with schools of snapper, have a go steering and sit back on the bean bags on deck drinking your drink and eating your fruit salad looking up at the wind filled sails of the huge catamaran 👌

Great - It's a no frills experience which makes this experience so good. No hype just good honest Kiwi hospitality at a very reasonable price.

Wonderful way to see Coromandel Cove - Absolutely brilliant afternoon sail with Hamish and Bridgette. They were both great hosts. Fantastic views, comfortable place to sit and enjoy the beautiful landscape. Got the opportunity to jump in for a swim and snorkel with the snapper, then to Coromandel Cove. Quick beverage and bowl of fruit to finish off a great adventure

Incredible experience with an amazing team! - We were privileged enough to go on an afternoon charter with the crew from boom sailing and it was the highlight of our hens do on the coromandel! We faced some challenging weather and Mat bent over backwards to make it work for us and the girls had an absolute blast! Such an amazing experience and a great way to see some of the coromandel's highlights! If you get an opportunity to go out on the water with these guys you definitely won't regret it!

No better way to enjoy your afternoon relaxing! - Relaxing afternoon sailing. Bean bags (and blankets) were were the cherry on top. Mat and Bridget were so friendly and knowledgeable. Absolutely worth the money, you won’t be disappointed.

As it says, chilled out... - As it says, chilled out tour, just perfect for peace and quiet, great hosts, I would enquire exactly where to meet as it’s not signposted on the beach

What a fabulous afternoon - A truly outstanding trip. No music or endless commentary. Just peaceful sailing. Not a very big catamaran which means not too many passengers. Only motors when absolutely necessary. Together with a beer or two on the beanbags (which are genius) makes for an unbeatable afternoon. They only sail in good weather so no need to worry about not having a great trip. Excellent skipper and crew. An absolute must.

Enjoy relaxed sailing,... - Lovely relaxed sailing, but depending on the weather. Almost no wind so only visited 1 bay instead of 3. We could swim which was also lovely and super sweet captain and sailor. Because it was cloudy and so quite cold, lovely blankets came out and that helped a lot against the cold.
