Beachcomber Cruises
Magic Mail Run
This is our most popular trip and a great way to explore the beautiful Marlborough Sounds. The Beachcomber Mail Boat is the only official licensed New Zealand Post Rural delivery service by water in the Queen Charlotte Sound. Share the excitement of Mail Day as our skipper delivers the mail and groceries to the families that live in the various bays and inlets in the Queen Charlotte Sound.
Operating from Monday to Saturday, no one day is the same as the route changes daily and you never know who or what you may meet. During your cruise your skipper will provide a commentary on the history of the Marlborough Sounds and the people who lived there then and now. Feel free to ask him any questions and keep your camera handy for any (unscheduled) wildlife encounters!
Join us for a trip of a lifetime!
**Please note: during Winter Months the cruise may return as early as 4pm and is not guaranteed to make a stop at Ship Cove. The reservations staff will let you know the cruise route upon check in. We still cover the same area for the Rural Post Mail Deliveries and you still get the same expert commentary and experience from our fantastic team.
**If you are sure you want to visit Ship Cove, you may want to book our 9:00am Ship Cove Cruise instead to get this time on shore to avoid disappointment.
