Motuoi Island

Out on an overnight cruise on a 30 cabin catamaran. We were tendered into this gorgeous little bay on Motuoi Islansd - one of 144 islands in the Bay of Islands. Some of our group went kayaking - that's them on the beach. Others went snorkelling, but we climbed to the top of the hill to enjoy the 360 degree view, then spent about an hour swimming in the bay - very warm water compared with what we get in the South Island.
