Located at the end of the Catalina Bay Waterfront in Aucklands newest suburb, Hobsonville Point.nnThe ferry jumps back and forth to neighboring suburb Beach Haven, before steaming to the Auckland CBD. The ride is smooth and just 25mns to the town.nnFerry runs 7 days a week with more frequent intervals during the work week, and frequent enough with late evening rides on the weekend.nnFriendly staff and usually the boat has an on board snack and drinks bar.nnTo ride the ferry you'll need a HOP card which you add cash credit to. There are machines at most ferry terminals, train and major bus hubs for you to top up. In addition there are stores that offer the top up service.nnYou can buy a HOP card from the same shops where you top up the card or bus hubs. Look out for the Auckland Transport signs.
I have had many good experiences with this ferry, but today was horrible. We had originally scheduled to get on from Hobsonville to Auckland at 3:15. We got there there was no boat, we checked websites and the board at the dock. Both of these things had different timings, 30 minutes apart at most. We had to wait 2 more hours for the next ferry. 5:45 ish We arrived in the city without problems but with a family of 7 5 kids. We checked the times with some of the crew and other workers. We got told ‘ The ferry will be there and if not we will pay for your travel home. ‘ It wasn’t those exact words but we were told we would get home. We went out for dinner then did some exploring and ice cream for the kids. We headed to our dock early to get the kids the seats they wanted. We got to the gate to find it was canceled. 8:55 with no way home at 5 sleepy kids on our case. We confronted the staff and we finally got home by Uber at 9:30. The Ubers were paid for us as well as around 12 other people. The excuse we got was; The ferry broke down. I’m expecting a few other reports about this, just do better next time-
Some interesting and fascinating history here, all the way down the pier.nnWhen I got there around midday the ferry was not running. Apparently it only runs early morning and late evening for transfers to the city. Unfortunately the timetable was not displayed alongside the pier.
Convenient and mostly covered when there is rain. A little confusing which ferry to get back to downtown.
Got cafe, Market nearby.
