BAYSCAPES CHARTERS

     

 Sailing in the Bay of Islands aboard this beautiful catamaran was a major highlight of our visit to NZ. We really enjoyed Brad and Monique's hospitality, knowledge and sailing skills. They provided great food & snacks, opportunities to explore a couple of islands, a lovely sail through the bay and had stand up paddle boards and snorkel gear available for use. Our private sailing charter with them was outstanding. Highly recommended!

 Fantastic day sailing with Brad & Monique around the bay of islands. Friendly skippers with lots of knowledge about the area and who were more than happy to answer questions. We had a great time on our walk, using the SUP’s and snorkelling with a delightful lunch to finish it off. The catamaran was beautiful and clearly well looked after! Thanks very much, a great way to see the Bay of Islands, would definitely recommend!

 We took the team from Blast Away Guys out on a private day charter. It was a fantastic experience and very relaxing. The kids got to see fish and an octopus while snorkelling around in the beautiful, clear waters. The boat itself is beautiful, very comfortable and they keep it in pristine condition. Thank you so much for a wonderful day Bayscapes.

 What a wonderful experience on this great sailing yacht, with the lovely skippers Monique and Brad, in the beautiful Bay of Islands. We have had an amazing day on the catamaran, a nice walk with stunning views on a secluded island, time to swim, snorkel, use the paddleboard and to relax. Absolutely perfect!

 Amazing experience! We got really lucky with good weather during our stay in Paihia. This is a must do excursion with Brad and Monique! Their boat was really comfortable to accommodate 18 of us. The packed food provided was also scrumptious!!

 So many thanks to our skippers Brad and Monique, we had a beautiful sailing trip with you with chilling in the bean bags as well as thrilling sailing moments „up wind“. Thanks for your kindness, know-how and answering all my questions about the sail, the right wind-direction and the colours of the water. That was awesome!

 Best charter in the Bay of Islands! We’ve been on private charters with Baycapes multiple times and will keep coming back. The boat is well outfitted and comfortable, the food is tasty, and Brad and Monique are lovely, have excellent knowledge of the area and always know the best spots to go on the day.

 Brad and Monique were very friendly, professional and organised. The boat is fantastic, well-kept with good facilities, and a good size for day trips. We had a beautiful sail out to Army Bay and time to walk on the island and spot many native birds, as well as swimming and paddle boarding. Just what we were looking for as a day trip in the Bay.

 We held a family reunion in the Bay of Islands and had the pleasure of chartering with Bayscapes. There were 11 adults and 2 children. All were comfortably accommodated. The tour had a mixture of things to do , hike, water sports, sailing and a fantastic lunch. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. Would thoroughly recommend them.

 "Incredible hospitality and organisation of the charter. Everyone was blown away and continue to talk about it and relive those memories. The attention to detail, provision of food, and being taken to Honeymoon Bay, which was perfectly named, was truly exquisite. Your warmth and sincerity were greatly appreciated. We would highly recommend Bayscapes to our friends and family, a number of those who were there have said they would repeat the day if they were to get married, or celebrate a milestone birthday."
