List of Auckland ferries

This is a list of ferries that operate in Auckland as part of the city's public transport network. Ferries are primarily operated by Fullers360, SeaLink, Belaire, and Explore.[1][2] Auckland Transport also owns several ferries,[3] but these vessels are controlled by Fullers360 until 2028.[4]

Auckland Transport

In 2022, Auckland Transport purchased four diesel ferries that were in dire need of repair from Fullers,[5][6] and is upgrading them to reduce their emissions.[6] There are plans to commission five new hybrid-electric ferries,[5] with the first two expected to arrive in 2024.[7]
