About the crossing
Wine Spectator calls it "one of the most
beautiful ferry rides in the world", and we believe that you will agree
wholeheartedly.
Interislander is the New Zealand ferry service which crosses the Cook Strait
between the North and South Islands of New Zealand. The 92 km, three hour
journey between Wellington and Picton is one of New Zealand's most iconic
tourist experiences, and one of the most spectacular cruises in the world.
Interislander operates three ships to carry both passengers and their
vehicles: Arahura, Aratere and Kaitaki. All our ships offer a safe,
comfortable and affordable journey, as well as a complete range of onboard
services.
Offering up to 11 sailings a day, passengers also have the convenience of a
wide choice of travel times. Your trip across the Cook Strait will be both
enjoyable and unforgettable.
