What better way to explore the beautiful coast of Kaikoura than from your very own sea kayak? Our guided tours off the Kaikoura Coast take you on the best routes to explore the rugged coastline of the Kaikoura peninsula, visiting our tried and trusted wildlife hotspots to interact with fur seals, chance encounters with dusky dolphins and blue penguins.
Our Kaikoura kayak tours offer fantastic experiences for both adults and children. Catering for all abilities and fitness levels, no previous kayaking experience needed. We will teach you everything you need to know. You do not need to be a fitness fanatic; you do not need to be an incredible swimmer and you do not need to have any previous kayaking experience! Whether you are looking for leisure or an adventure – we have you covered! Your safety is paramount to us and this is why you will use stable enclosed double sea kayaks, which will also protect you from the elements.
Guided tour options include the wildlife tour, the family tour (which also includes wildlife experiences) and the winter tour—with warm, waterproof gear supplied to help you rug up and stay dry. We also offer private tours for those looking for something different, planning a special surprise for a loved one or keen to have the full attention of their own personal guide.
Our experienced and qualified guides assess the weather and sea conditions frequently and they know the Kaikoura Peninsula like the backs of their hands. On the day of your tour, we will take you to the top locations for phenomenal views, optimal comfort, and the best opportunities to interact with Kaikoura’s wildlife.
