Auckland Harbour

America's Cup Sailing

This is a two-hour excursion, departing from the Explore NZ kiosk at Viaduct Harbour in the heart of Auckland (a short walk from the bottom of Queen Street). Your trip will start this morning/afternoon and you will be advised locally of the time. Make sure you get to the harbor in plenty of time. If you have any medical condition it is best to inform the skipper before the boat sets out and you must remember that all departures are subject to wind and weather conditions.

Dress comfortably, bringing flat shoes like trainers or deck shoes. Wet weather jackets are provided for you. If the weather is sunny then it is advisable to take a hat.
