Overview

The pirate-flagged Sail Fearless has got to be the not-so-buried treasure of Great Lake Taupō . With a heart of gold and extensive knowledge of New Zealand and lake Taupo it is no wonder Fearless (David) has won so many awards for his affordable Maori rock carvings cruises.

So come on board Fearless for simply the best sailing experience on Great Lake Taupō. This is the more intimate cruise option to the famous Maori Rock carvings, with sleek lines and a maximum of only 18 passengers. 

Guests can relax on beanbags and snuggle under blankets, or give the crew a hand.

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Redoubt Street, Taupō 3330, New Zealand

At the Taupo Marina, join a professional crew for a sail on Fearless, a 36-foot (12-meter) ketch with capacity for up to 18 passengers. This 2.5-hour scenic journey on great Lake Taupo delivers you to the Māori Rock Carvings at Mine Bay (or Okuta Bay) while taking in the popular Te Kopua and Acacia bays en route.  

The boat sails under full sail or, depending on wind and weather conditions, gently meanders when waters are truly calm using a quit inboard diesel motor. Relax and enjoy the views or join in with hoisting the sails — it's up to you. Either way, you'll experience the romance of a sailing adventure aboard this graceful vessel. 

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Maori Rock Carvings, Lake Taupo, Taupo New Zealand

Listen to commentary while you gaze at the Māori Rock Carvings, which are only accessible by water. You’ll get right up close to the rock face and have ample time to take in the intricacy of the large Māori figures.

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Lake Taupo, Taupo Marina, Taupo New Zealand

In the warmer months, bring your swimsuit and a towel, or upgrade your sailing tour with free music, wine, and pizza for an idyllic summer evening. You are also able to bring your own food and drinks with you, should you wish. Afterwards, return to the marina where you tour concludes.

It was such a lovely day not only because the weather was amazing! The guys were not only super kind but also made sure we got all out questions answered. We even did some fishing that day! Plus they invited us to stay on the boat even after the tour was over to sail with the next tour. we need more tourist guides like you! Thanks for everything :)

Great service. Not rushed, just enough time to appreciate the lake. Skipper is very experienced so I felt safe throughout. Glad to support a local business.

Breathtaking & peaceful sunset hours on a Sailing Boat. Just the best way to learn the best side of Lake Taupo and complete a travel day.

We loved it. Usually the boat trips can get boring, but not with this one. There was always something happening. Instead of just going back after looking at the carvings, we went for a lovely swim and sailed for a bit. The whole thing was totally worth it. Will do it again.
