Occassion

Friends & Family Gatherings

Sometimes the best reason to get together is simply because you can. 

Get Everyone Together 

Bring family and friends aboard Loloma or 38 South for a private day on Lake Taupō with time to catch up, share some food, enjoy the water and spend the day together without needing a special occasion. 

A Day Everyone Can Enjoy 

When you’ve got different ages, interests and personalities in one group, finding something everyone enjoys isn’t always easy. 

A private charter gives you options. Some might want to fish, others can swim, while those who’d rather relax can stay onboard with a drink and enjoy the scenery. 

Add lunch, music and plenty of time to talk and you’ve got an easy day out that works for the whole group. 

Choose the Boat for Your Group 

Loloma 

Room for the Whole Crew 

With capacity for up to 28 guests, Loloma works well for extended families, groups of friends and bigger get-togethers. 

Her spacious, social layout means everyone can stay together while still having room to spread out and enjoy the day. 

38 South 

A Day Away with Your Favourite People 

For groups of up to 12 guests, 38 South offers a more intimate private day on Lake Taupō. 

Enjoy premium catering, swimming, fishing or watersports, or simply spend the day cruising and catching up. 

What Will Your Day Look Like? 

Mix and match the things your group enjoys: 

  • Scenic cruising 
  • Swimming 
  • Fishing 
  • Lunch and catering 
  • Drinks onboard 
  • Music 
  • Fliteboarding and jet skiing aboard 38 South 
  • Māori Rock Carvings 
  • Half-day or full-day cruising 
  • Plenty of time to relax 

Catch Up Without the Clock 

No restaurant table you need to give back. No rushing everyone from one place to another. 

A private charter gives you time to settle in, talk properly and enjoy being together while Lake Taupō provides the backdrop. 

Visiting Taupō Together? 

If family or friends are coming from out of town, make the charter part of their Taupō stay. 

Great Lake Adventures can also bring together accommodation and dining options, making it easier to plan a few days together rather than just a few hours.
