Cook Strait, on the Ferry

The View from the Ferry

You can fly from between the two Islands, and it's certainly more comfortable, but then you'd miss the scenery, not to mention the authentic cuisine of the Onboard Ferry Cafeteria.

The InterIsland Ferry service carries cars and people between the North and South Island. Cook Strait can be somewhat rough, so you'll want to gaze over the side a lot, and look thankfully at the lifeboat pods. Only one Cook Strait Ferry, the Wahine (Woman), has ever sunk.
