45 minute Whale Watching Helicopter Flight from Kaikoura
Highlights & inclusions
What you can expect
Join South Pacific Whale Watch in Kaikoura for a scenic, whale watching helicopter flight. Whale watching flights provide an amazing opportunity to view the magnificent marine wildlife of Kaikoura from above, specifically the local Sperm Whales and Dusky Dolphins. Your pilot and guide will take a slow orbit around the animals, in a way only a helicopter can, to give exceptional views of the magnificent creatures. As well as the local wildlife it is also common to spot Southern Right Whales, Humpback Whales, Fin Whales, Pilot Whales, Southern Bottlenose Dolphins and Blue Whales. If you’re lucky, you may even see Common Dolphins, Hectors Dolphins, Risso's, Southern Right Whale Dolphins and even Orca! On a whale watching flight you can see the whale in its entirety from tip to tail and take in some of NZ's most beautiful coastal shores. Whale watching from the helicopter allows for much better views and photography opportunities.
