In March 2010, the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park celebrated its 10th anniversary and Fullers marked the occasion by operating guided cruises, visiting some of the Hauraki Gulf’s unique islands and wild life sanctuaries and stopping off for guided walks and leisurely activities along the way.
Following the popularity of the Discovery Cruises, Fullers is going to operate a repeat series in 2011, which includes the addition of two new cruises and destinations.
