Getting Here
Ferries:
Waiheke Island is only 35 minutes by fast foot passenger ferry
from Auckland Harbour. Fullers Ferries run 14-20 return trips
a day, and the Island buses are timetabled to get people to
and from all sailings.
Sealink run 8-13 car and foot passenger ferries daily from
Half Moon Bay to Kennedy Point. This can take 45-60 minutes,
according on the sailing. There is no convenient bus timed for
these sailings to our accommodation. But Under Takirau is only
a few hundred metres, and Patangatanga is 2km away from Kennedy
Point ferry landing - an easy drive if you bring your car, or
a cheap taxi ride away.
