Jet boat into the heart of Fiordland

South Island's ultimate jet boat ride!

We will take you on a trip of a life time.  Read what people have said about the ride here!

90km of jet boating into the heart of Fiordland National Park and back; travel across Lake Hauroko and down to the rugged southern coast via the wild Wairaurahiri River.  

This all day adventure includes personal guided nature walks and a delicious kiwi stlye BBQ and over the winter we have added heated hand rails and purchased water proof oil skin coats. These are a great addition to our already awesome boat.

The River : The Wairaurahiri River, 34 km of rugged rock strewn grade three rapids that drop 600ft to sea level. These are the conditions which make the Wairaurahiri Jet such an exciting ride!

Our safety: Johan, (owner operater) has over 20 years experience on the river. Our twin engined jet boat is specially designed to handle the conditions of this remote area.

Wairaurahiri Jet is also audited yearly by Maritime NZ, and is an approved activity by Qualmark.

Trampers: We can pick up or drop off - links with Hump Ridge Track and South Coast Track.
