Here’s your opportunity to acquire a young adventure tourism business located in the stunning Bay of Islands. Bay of Islands Adventures is a family-owned operation delivering jet boating and glass bottom tours to some of the Bays most iconic locations. The business combines local knowledge, small-group experiences, and a passion for the ocean to create memorable adventures for visitors of all ages.
Widely regarded as one of New Zealand’s premier coastal destinations, the Bay of Islands offers a unique blend of natural beauty, marine activity, and historic significance. Positioned at the heart of the region, Paihia Wharf serves as the main tourism hub and gateway to marine adventures. This business benefits from leasing a prime booking office on the Paihia Wharf, capturing strong foot traffic and visitor demand. The business also leases two carparks located in a high-profile position for visibility of the sign written van.
Bay of Islands Adventures offers two core marine tourism services. The Jet Boat Rides deliver an adrenaline-filled experience, reaching speeds of up to 80km/h with sharp turns and fast-paced manoeuvres, while showcasing the region’s scenic coastline. The Glass Bottom Boat Tours provide a relaxed and immersive experience with scenic cruises to iconic destinations such as the Hole in the Rock, Deep Water Cove and Otehei Bay. Visitors can observe marine life through glass viewing panels while enjoying informative commentary.
Flexibility exists to purchase the Jet Boat operation alone or include the Glass Bottom Boats. The vendors have realistically priced the business at the approx. second-hand value of the business assets. Assets include four boats, three trailers, two marina berths with air berths, one van, and all smaller assets/chattels to make the business work.
