Once at Deep Cove, visitors board the catamaran, the 'Commander Peak', for a three-hour cruise of beautiful Doubtful Sound.

On board there is excellent viewing of waterfalls, rainforest and mountains. Of particular interest, if sighted, are fur seals basking on the rocks, or a resident pod of bottlenose dolphins. Rare Fiordland crested penguins are sometimes encountered on a seasonal basis. Understanding of the area is greatly enhanced by the interesting on board English commentary.
