Phantom Sailing Bay of Islands
We only take 10 guests and offer a unique personal experience with 20 years taking guests on our beautiful live-aboard yacht and we still love it!! Private tours are also available on request. We share our passion for what we do and love meeting people from all over the world and sharing stories from our travels and lifestyle. We have sailed to many countries on many different boats, so come along and hear the tales of adventures far and wide. We raised our son on the boat while sailing from the Caribbean and throughout the South Pacific and New Zealand for many years. Twenty three years of loving and enjoying sailing with new friends from all over the globe!

Itinerary

  1. With a maximum of 10 guests on board you will feel personally looked after and away from the crowds. We sail through the beautiful Bay of Islands to an island stop where guests can go ashore for a hour to hike for incredible views of the bay and the 144 islands. Swim, snorkel or just relax on board while we prepare a fabulous home-made lunch. Enjoy beautiful scenery, beautiful beaches, friendly atmosphere and great conversation then enjoy a great afternoon sail back to Russell all while learning the history of the Bay from a local New Zealander. You hosts, Rick and Robin, share their knowledge of the area and passion for sailing and are happy to give any sailing instruction and show how their fantastic yacht handles. Phantom has a very special pedigree and no sailing experience is necessary for coming aboard! We will see native sea birds - penguins, gannets, shearwaters and may get a lucky visit form the local dolphins of the occasional orca.
