Outboard Boating Club

Outboard Boating Club is located east of Auckland, on Hobson Bay. It has a wide array of facilities, including a marina. From here you can easily reach Motutapu and Rangitoto islands, located just across the harbor from downtown Auckland. The two islands are connected by a causeway passing over the narrow strait between them. Rangitoto is the youngest and largest of the 48 volcanic cones scattered across the Auckland region. Its summit offers spectacular 360-degree views across the Hauraki Gulf and out to the Waitakere Ranges in the west and Hunua Ranges in the east. Further on is Waiheke Island, that offers everything from nature walks, beautiful sandy beaches and diving to shopping, dining and nightlife. In Auckland you can visit museums and art galleries, enjoy kiwi cuisine at the pubs and restaurants, try some craft beer, or walk to the top of Mount Eden’s volcanic cone for some of the best views in the city. To add some adventure into the mix, try the Sky walk or Sky jump at the 328m high telecommunications tower.
