Experience the stunning Queen Charlotte Sounds aboard the Magic Mail Boat for an epic half day cruise!
Join Beachcomber Cruises - the only officially licensed New Zealand Post Rural Delivery Service by water in the Queen Charlotte Sound / Tōtaranui for a unique half-day cruise!
For over 150 years, residents along the Queen Charlotte Sounds waterways have been receiving their mail by boat and we are proud to uphold that service.
We invite you onboard to share the excitement as your skipper delivers the mail and experience the real Queen Charlotte Sounds, off the beaten tourist track. Each day is different as the mail route changes to cover different areas but all will be just as scenic!
Sit back and relax as the skipper provides you with interesting commentary while you take in the stunning scenery from the excellent viewing areas.
Available to purchase for $6 in the office before you depart are Beachcomber Cruises keep cups, we no longer use single use cups on board our vessels due the huge environmental impact. Upon purchase of a Beachcomber Cruises keep cup guests can enjoy tea and coffee onboard for the duration of the tour.
The Captain /driver/diver/commentator was a credit to your company. His professionalism and local maori knowledge was exceptional. Would definately recommend this tour.
Great
Loved seeing how the mail is delivered to out of reach properties. The skipper was very informative. The scenery was amazing. Great afternoon.
The skipper told us very interesting things about the Marlborough Sounds. The landscape is amazing. The whole team of Beachcomber cruise was very nice!
