Hvalsafari i Kaikoura med båd
Beskrivelse
Whale Watch er beliggende i den lille kystby Kaikōura på østkysten af New Zealands South Island en naturskøn to og en halv times kørsel nord fra Christchurch og to timers kørsel syd fra Picton. Kaikōura er et specielt sted med frodige græsgange og tårnhøje, snedækkede toppe, der falder til havet. Denne sjældne magi fortsætter lige uden for havet, hvor en dyb undersøisk canyon kombinerer med usædvanlige havstrømme for at tiltrække en ekstraordinær overflod af det marine liv, den mest berømte er den Giant Sperm Whale. Whale Watch er New Zealands eneste fartbaserede hvalsafari, der tilbyder besøgende et spændende nært møde med verdens største tandpredende, den store spermhval i deres naturlige omgivelser hele tiden på året. Whale Watch planlagte ture opererer dagligt. Vores 95% succesrate betyder, at vi garanterer en 80% refusion, hvis din tur ikke ser en hval. Whale Watch ture er ekstremt populære, så vi anbefaler at reservere tidligt.

one of the best places in he world for whake watching. we saw sperm whales, humpback whales and dusky dolphins.
Was a lovely trip. We saw some whales but not close up. Saw mostly dolphins. Way too many people on the boat, it felt chaotic and some people have no common sense and kept barging in to you which felt very unsafe as the waters were quite rough. Staff were all wonderful.
I am lost for words to good to miss 😔 couldn't believe my eyes being so close to there world job well done.Were they watching us or us watching them.Thank you.
Extremely well run operation, knowledgeable staff/team, fantastic wild life. Guaranteed to bring you an epic experience
One of the best whale watching trips. Apart from seeing whales, dophins, many birds and seals the way it was organised was excellent, friendly and efficient. The narrative was excellent; done by a true professional who obviously loved her work and was enthusiastic and knowledgeable.
It was a magical experience, getting to see 2 sperm whales and a passing humpback whale. The sea crew were also well versed in their knowledge of the sea and the different marine species. Was a blessing to see both Marama and Mati Mati, the sperm whales on our cruise!
I did the 10.30 am tour with Kaikōura Whale Watching. It is a very well oiled outfit, putting on about 3 whale watching trips each day, each boat holding about 90 passengers. You check in at their main building near the railway station and are then taken on a short bus ride to the boats. Luckily I had picked a sunny day for my trip as the day before had been raining non-stop and foggy. We were lucky on our trip to see four humpback whales and a pod of dolphins swimming along together and then a sperm whale. The guide said he was the oldest sperm whale in the bay and was quite well known to them. The trip took about 2 hours and was well thought out. But wrap up warm if you are going in winter as it was very cold on the deck!
The staff was excellent and the craft was very up-to-date and modern. We were delayed 45 minutes as the previous tour was chasing a whale — don’t know if they found it. Our tour set out to find a sperm whale but the whale did not surface. We waited for a while and then they turned to shore and found a couple of hump back whales. It appears that the location of the humpbacks is a pretty sure thing and the sperm whale was the wild card that didn’t pay off this time.
Excellent day, friendly knowledgable staff, great craft and awesome experience.
Really enjoyed the expertise of this tour they knew exactly where the whales were going to be and even when they would surface and dive. Amazing! Also loved the commentary it was extremely interesting and they were so knowledgeable.
