🌊 A Different Approach to Hauraki Gulf Eco-Tourism 🌊
Hibiscus JetSki Hire & Tours has been featured in a newly published Auckland.Scoop article about how marine eco-tourism is evolving in the Hauraki Gulf.
From our base at Big Manly Beach on the Whangaparāoa Peninsula, we offer locals and visitors a personal, close-to-the-water way to experience Auckland’s incredible marine environment.
Travelling by jet ski gives riders a completely different perspective of the Gulf with its many islands, varied coastlines, sheltered bays, seabirds, marine life and the special places that make this area truely worth protecting.
Our longer island adventures can include destinations such as Tiritiri Matangi, Kawau, Beehive, Motuora, Moturekareka and Motuketekete, combining marine adventure with conservation, island restoration, maritime history and local stories.
The article also highlights our oyster farm experience, where visitors can learn about sustainable aquaculture, local food production and the connection between healthy marine environments and coastal communities.
Responsible exploration is central to every trip. Riders receive a full safety briefing, guidance around wildlife distances and information on how to help protect sensitive coastal areas.
As an approved pest-free commercial operator in the Hauraki Gulf, we follow biosecurity practices that help protect pest-free and predator-free islands.
As a locally owned, family-operated Hibiscus Coast business, it’s exciting to see this approach recognised in the media. We’re proud to play our part in creating marine tourism experiences that combine adventure, education and a deeper connection with the Hauraki Gulf.
Because Life is better on a JetSki 🌊
