Explore Great Barrier Island with SeaLink
Explore the untouched beauty of Aotea / Great Barrier Island by e-bike, a fun and eco-friendly way to see more of this stunning spot. Just near Claris Airport, you’ll find Motubikes, where you can hire lightweight, solar-charged electric bikes purpose-built for the island’s mix of roads. They’re whisper-quiet, easy to handle, and perfect for both sealed and gravel tracks. All you need is a full driver’s licence.
Motubikes can even meet you off the ferry, so you can start your adventure the moment you arrive. Hire by the hour or for a full day, even overnight, and create your own journey from hidden beaches to breathtaking lookouts. There’s also a handy free solar charging station outside the Local Board office in Claris, so you can top up anytime.
Or, for something a little different, hop aboard a Crazyhorse Trike Tour. This three-seater Rewaco trike, complete with a local driver, lets you soak up the sights in style with all the fresh air and none of the effort.
However you choose to explore, Great Barrier Island is made for discovery. Get off the beaten track and see it your way.
