How To Get Here

If you are using satellite navigation to get to Russell you will need to do this in 2 steps as many navigation systems do not cater for the ferry crossing from Opua to Okiato.  

Step 1:  Please take State Highway 1 from Auckland to Kawakawa, then take Highway 11 (Paihia Road) to Beechy Street in Opua.  As you drive down the hill you will notice the ferry lane is located on the far left hand side, stay in this lane, there may be a queue for the ferry, the queue generally moves quickly – follow the flow and you will then board the ferry.  

You do not need to book the car ferry, the trip is approximately 10 minutes long, they run every 10 minutes from 6.40am (Okiato side) until 9.50pm from Opua. The cost is $13.00 per vehicle, no need to pay for passengers.

Step 2: If you have GPS please enter the address of your holiday home while you are stationary on the ferry, we will give you clear instructions where to meet us so we can take you to the property.
