A boat tour operator on the Kaipara Harbour, running from Parakai Landing on Springs Road in Parakai, near Helensville, with the 17-metre vessel M.V. Kewpie Too. The company runs three-hour river cruises, a four-hour river and harbour cruise from Helensville and Parakai, and a two-day Kaipara adventure between Helensville and Dargaville that follows old steamer and sailing routes. The four-hour cruise passes Shelly Beach, the inner harbour, native bush, birdlife and Alan Gibbs' sculpture farm, and the website says the cruise can reach the Kaukapakapa River if the tide allows. Tea, coffee and soft drinks are sold on board, cash only. Gift vouchers are available. Group bookings of at least 30 people are taken by phone or email, and the company also runs charter crossings for cyclists on the Tour Aotearoa Trail. Bookings can be made by phone on 09 420 8466 or by email to kaiparacruises@xtra.co.nz. The website lists its 2026 dates for the cruises.
