The Ocean Safari will take you over Kaikōura’s wildlife colonies and provide you with breath-taking views of the whales, the mountains and the Pacific Ocean.

Kaikōura is also located on the migratory routes for Humpback whales, Southern Right whales, Orca, and even Blue whales, giving you the opportunity to discover more species and colonies dependent on the season.

We will take you past the stunning vistas of the Seaward Kaikōura Mountain Ranges, as well as the Kaikōura Peninsula, and the vastness of the Pacific Ocean.

After your whale watching experience, we will take you along the coastline of Kaikōura where you can spot more marine wildlife including the resident populations of Dusky dolphins as well as New Zealand fur seals with the gorgeous backdrop of mountains and sea at every turn. Next, your pilot will fly you to an exclusive landing site accessible only by South Pacific Helicopters, where you can experience incredible views of the mountains and the Pacific Ocean below you.
