Love to chill and sit back on the bean bag to enjoy the beautiful Coromandel! Definitely will recommend this 3.5hr trip. - First time trying a sailboat and it was an amazing experience. Our sailboat operator Ingrid and Sam is amazing, professional and friendly. They keep us entertained and well taken care of throughout the whole journey. They brought us out for some amazing and chill ride in the sailboat and everything went smoothly from the beginning to the end. Cathedral cove is beautiful. The coffee that Ingrid make is awesome! Some refreshment is provided. Love the bean bag to chill and enjoy the ride. Definitely would reccomend this 3.5hr experience to see Cathedral Cove. Love the morning sail as im not a fan of too hot or too sunny weather.

A Must Do Experience in The Coromandel - Boom Sailing Coromandel provided truly memorable experience during our New Zealand holiday. Matt and Ingrid were awesome. We really enjoyed the snorkeling, bean bags, blankets and onboard banana bread and coffee - nice touches to our already amazing morning. Seeing Cathedral Cove on the catamaran is an experience I’ll remember for a long time. If you’re traveling to Coromandel, this is a must do experience.

SO much fun! - We had an absolutely fabulous time On the catamaran! From the ridiculously comfortable, beanbags and blankets if you get chilly, to the breathtaking views our time aboard was absolutely perfect! Hosts Matt, and Ingrid, do a fabulous job of striking just the right balance between interesting tidbits of information, and peace and quiet and allowing you to take it all in. Throw in the juice, coffee, and delicious, baked treats… And we never wanted to leave! Sidenote… If you're offered the chance to take a dip… Absolutely do it! Little bit brisk… OK… A LOT brisk… But tons of fish to see and super refreshing! :-) if you have a long sleeved swim shirt for cold temps it's a big plus! Thanks Matt, and Ingrid for a fabulous morning on the water!

Perfect morning sailing to and fro Cathedral Cove! - What an absolutely phenomenal time with Josh and Sam sailing along the coast to see Cathedral Cove in all of its glory! Two very experienced sailors provided a relaxing experience as we traveled along. Coffee and banana bread as we headed out was a perfect start to the morning, swimming and snorkeling with a large school of snapper was a blast, and they were both very knowledgeable on the surrounding area and some other fun ventures for my wife and I to explore on our honeymoon! Also, Mat the owner was extremely accomodating when we couldn’t make our initial trip the day prior due to road closures, and got us aboard the vessel the very next morning! Cannot recommend this company enough.

Beautiful tour with beautiful people! - We booked this tour the night before on a whim and we were so pleasantly surprised by how amazing this was! The catamaran was a stunning boat and our guides were amazing. They were super friendly and attentive, with a wealth of knowledge. We were able to see Cathedral Cove, go swimming and provided with snacks and alcohol. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area!
