Whale Watch Cruise in Kaikoura

I recently took a whale watch cruise in Kaikoura, New Zealand, and it was fantastic. The staff were great, and we were lucky to see whales three times! The stunning coastline made it even better. And we also watch thousand over of Dophins ! Highly recommend!

Hehe, it was so much fun ㅠㅠ I really like whales, so I got to see it up close. If you want to see the whales up close, choose a boat, or if you want to see the whales in their entirety, choose a helicopter. But after being on the bow, it moves towards the whale like a speedboat, and it's just like riding an amusement ride. It's so much fun🥹👍🏻 I think I saw the whale two or three times. I glanced at the tail and body, and it was disappointing that the whale didn't jump as high as I expected, but it was an unfamiliar experience :) There were people who got seasick because the boat was bouncing up and down so much.

Went out on the boat to experience whales in their natural environment. The boat was very comfortable and the staff were friendly and made you feel safe. It was a very windy day and the sea was very rough so taking sea sickness pills before the trip was a good idea. We saw a whale which was amazing and also saw some Albatross, Hectors Dolphins and Dusky Dolphins. Highly recommend

Thoroughly enjoyed the tour! The cruise was comfortable and had sufficient space for everyone to stand around to watch the whales. As guaranteed, we saw a whale! Bonus was seeing it twice! Staff were informative and gave us the space and time to enjoy the whales.

exchange a pass at the office for boarding the bus to the port and the ferry. during the cruise, nice explanation about the marine. can observe it from a distance, nice and fun.

It was a choppy ride with gale warning and high chance of sea sickness. Thankful that the ride proceeded and we got to see marama and tiaki whales and a school of dusky dolphins and fur seals

seamless experience changing the klook voucher for tickets! was pretty excited till the boat started moving... it was such a bumpy ride finding the whales 🥲🥲🥲 felt sooooo sea sick throughout, despite eating medicine. there was a couple of ppl puking into paper bags provided by the staff too, not just me. managed to see ard 2-3 whales but couldn't enjoy myself at all.

Fabulous day, amazing experience! Perfect calm sunny day, Captain Jack ably assisted by Fiona, Billy & the team located a sperm whale called Holey Moley shortly after sailing out. We watched for about 10 mins until he dived then they took us to another spot where we were lucky enough to watch a pod of Hector dolphins and also Dusky dolphins, not to mention seeing a lone Albatross! Consider ourselves very lucky. The onboard commentary and knowledge of the team all added to the experience. Comfortable seating on board ( would recommend VIP upgrade)and smooth transfers via bus there and back. Thoroughly recommend!⭐️⭐️⭐️

we had a great time on this tour! we saw one sperm whale twice with chance to watch it diving down. so beautiful! and we even went to visit a seal colony too. the boat was comfortable and spacious to ride out in. so lucky with the weather too! would deffo recommend this tour

Personally, I like natural scenery more than animals, so it wasn't a great course, but I recommend it to those who, unlike me, really want to see whales. I've seen a whale's tail a couple of times, and they say you're lucky if you see the tail. The tail itself is said to be 4-5 meters long, but it doesn't look very big because you see it from a distance. (Just looking at the sea is nice, but it's better not to expect too much.) I didn't get sick because I took motion sickness medication, but I saw one person who suffered from motion sickness. It is recommended that you take motion sickness medication beforehand! When you go out to sea, it's quite cold and the wind is very strong. (It doesn't matter if you're on board) I didn't wear sunglasses, but there were a lot of people wearing sunglasses. I couldn't understand because I don't speak English, but I thought the guide was interesting. I especially liked the video that was shown on the TV.
