| Have you ever been swimming with dolphins? Don't worry, here's your chance on this full day tour from Christchurch. Journey north to Kaikoura, famous for the variety of marine animals which can be seen. Join your Swim with Dolphins cruise, don a wet suit, mask, snorkel and flippers and then dive into the sea to swim alongside the acrobatic Dusky Dolphins. An awesome encounter that you'll remember for a lifetime! |
Spend the day getting close to nature. Travel by coach through the rolling hill country of North Canterbury, enjoying the beauty of its rural pastoral scenes, to Kaikoura where mountains meet sea (a journey of approximately 3 hours by coach). Kaikoura is world renowned for the variety of marine mammals which can be seen, not least of all the giant sperm whales and the acrobatic Dusky Dolphins.
On arrival in Kaikoura you may enjoy either an early lunch (additional at own expense) at the Craypot Cafe and Bar or have free time to explore Kaikoura before being transferred to the 'Swim with Dolphins' Tour with Dolphin Encounter, where you will be fully equipped with wet suit, mask, snorkel and flippers in order to swim in the sea with the Dusky Dolphins. There will be the opportunity during the day to visit a seal colony where fur seals may be viewed at close quarters. Returning to Christchurch this afternoon (approximately 3 hours by coach). |
