Doubtful Sound Tours

Known for its pristine beauty and wildlife, Doubtful Sound is the second largest of the 14 fiords in Fiordland National Park and is three times longer and 10 times larger than Milford Sound. It is home to bottlenose dolphins and fur seals - both of which are often seen. In season, you may also catch a glimpse of the rare Fiordland Crested Penguin.

There are many ways to experience Doubtful Sound - by kayak or cruise, as a day trip or on an overnight experience.

In Maori legend, this colossal fiord was created by the godly figure Tu Te Raki Whanoa. Four young sea gods assisted him by carving the fiord’s long, sheltered arms.

Today, Doubtful Sound remains an unspoilt wilderness of many moods; one minute clear blue and sun drenched, the next mysterious and mist cloaked.
