A whale-watch explorer helicopter flight from Kaikoura may be your best bet for enjoying the many marine wonders that the Kaikoura area has to offer. Focused on finding the mighty sperm whales that frequent the Kaikoura Trench all year round, your pilot's goal is to position you for the perfect photo by slowly circling the whale from high above in a way that only a helicopter can. If you spot a whale, you'll be able to see it in its entirety -- from tip to tail.
Kaikoura lies on the migratory path of various marine mammals, including blue whales, humpback whales, pilot whales, and killer whales.
Land at an exclusive coastal landing site for views of the Pacific Ocean, the Kaikoura Peninsula, and the Seaward Kaikoura mountain range.
Please note: Maximum weight is 264 lbs (120 kg). Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed.
