Dolphin Watching Passengers Bay Of Islands Northland NZ
Photo & Vacation Spot

Passengers aboard a dolphin watching tour enjoy the beauty of viewing a dolphin perform in the waters in the Bay of Islands in Northland, NZ.

A Bottlenose Dolphin gives passengers aboard a whale/dolphin watching tour in the Bay of Islands off Northland, NZ, a close encounter. Passengers ogle over the bow of the boat, some watching the wrong side, as a Bottlenose Dolphin surfaces at the port side of the boat.

Dolphins love to ride the wake of a boat, either at the bow or stern, and this particular one lets the passengers enjoy its beauty as it surfs in its natural habitat. The Bay of Islands is bursting with amazing things to see, but dolphin watching is one of the most exciting.

Many people aboard these dolphin watching tours are prepared with a camera and lots of film, but often, the memories held without watching these marine mammals through a small piece of equipment is well worth it. To see the dolphins frolic below is one which is unforgettable while visiting the Bay of Islands in Northland, New Zealand.
