Levi and Logan did a fantastic job both administrative and logistically. The trip was well run and we had a lot of fun. There were shy albatross and duskies on top of the resident fur seals. Will come back again!
Thanks heaps guys, stoked to hear you had an awesome time with Charlie, what a beautiful photo to !~ Thanks from the team at Seal Kayak Kaikōura
What a magical experience. We were a small group, only 4 people, and we got so lucky. There were so many seals both on lands a d in the water, swimming meter away from us. Then, dolphins. That was unexpected, but there were so many of them, even swimming under our kayak and jumping. And to finish.. a whale. Could not have asked for more.
Thanks Aude We had a really special day with you and having a small crew is always so much fun! The seals live such an incredible life and getting to know them in their natural habitat is epic! What a awesome wildlife filled day Thanks from the team at Seal Kayak Kaikōura
