Kapiti Ferry Only Rangatira

If all you're looking for is a ferry ride to the island, the required Department of Conservation permit and an introductory talk from a guide, this is for you. This trip will take you to Rangatira, in the middle of Kapiti Island. Here you'll have the chance to climb the island's highest peak, or enjoy the lower tracks through old established forest. This is ideal for those who want to see the denser old growth forest, and are keen for a more demanding walk than is available at the Waiorua.

You'll need to bring your own lunch with you. If you're looking for an all inclusive tour, check out our Kapiti Day Tour instead.

Check in for this trip is 45-30 minutes before your ferry sailing time at 29 Marine Parade, Paraparaumu Beach.

After checking in you will board the ferry at Paraparaumu Beach. You will have around 5.5hrs on the island.
