As one superyacht season draws to a close and the next appears on the horizon, it’s the time of year when many owners and captains consider their future cruising plans.

At this transitional time, there’s no better base for yachts to consider for their next adventure than the South Pacific, with a focal point on New Zealand, says Jeanette Tobin, an expert local agent at Asia Pacific Superyachts NZ and co-author of the Superyacht Explorer guide to cruising in the region.

At the heart of any significant cruising plans like these, should be a solid home base for the months or years when you relocate your superyacht to a different region or hemisphere.

New Zealand ticks all the boxes that any superyacht owner might consider when seeking out interesting new cruising grounds for exploration or to attract the growing pool of adventurous charter clients.

It is a safe and secure country, with all the transport connections necessary for inbound travel from Asia, Europe or the Americas.

New Zealand also offers ample yachting infrastructure and expertise for world-class refit and repair while staying in the region, adds Duthie Lidgard, Managing Director of Asia Pacific Superyachts NZ.
