Reserve your seat on the Waiheke Reserve, the direct ferry service to Waiheke Island. Select your preferred date and time for travel and board up to 15 minutes before departure. Departure times from Auckland Ferry Terminal (piers 13/14) are 9am, 10:15am, and 11am, and from Matiatia Ferry Terminal (pier 3) at 4:30pm, 5:15pm, and 6:15pm. The Waiheke Reserve is ideal for those with fixed schedules, offering same-day returns or return trips up to three weeks from the departure date. For travel outside these times, opt for the Waiheke Walk-up ferry, the main passenger service with frequent, year-round sailings to Waiheke Island.
