It was great to see an equal opportunity ferry company. So nice to see females working on the boats. We felt safe and comfortable on both there and back from Stewart Island. The return trip was delayed due to extreme and unsafe weather conditions. All staff were proficient and dealt with passengers who were uncomfortable with the stormy conditions.

Experience the best of Stewart Island in one plan — scenic ferry travel paired with a rare wild kiwi encounter.

Travel between Bluff and Stewart Island with round-trip ferry transfers, live onboard commentary, and complimentary tea or coffee as you cross the Foveaux Strait.

Join the Stewart Island Wild Kiwi Experience, featuring a sunset cruise to Little Glory Cove and a guided evening walk with an expert nature guide to search for kiwi in their natural habitat.

We had a lovely experience, very great ferry ride! The views are gorgeous, you can sit in a seat or stand out the back and watch the ocean. Dropping off and collecting luggage is also incredibly efficient!
