Extended Whale Watch
An extended option of our Classic Whale Watch, this flight gives you more time above Kaikōura’s unique deep-sea canyon, searching for whales and other migrating marine life.
The longer flight time allows us to search further offshore in the deeper waters, not only for the Sperm Whales but for any migrating baleen whales such as the Humpback, Blue and Fin Whales, as they travel between their feeding grounds in Antarctica and the warm waters of the South Pacific.
On the way back to our beachfront heli pads keep an eye out for pods of our resident playful Dusky Dolphins, the NZ Fur Seals basking along the rocks and the small rare Hector Dolphins swimming along the coastline.
Kaikōura Helicopters supports Project Jonah, a registered charity existing for one reason – to help marine mammals in desperate need. Their vision is to create a world where these animals are respected and protected. Project Jonah has pioneered whale rescue techniques and has shared this technology and expertise with the rest of the world. Kaikōura Helicopters actively support Project Jonah with funding and welcome our guests to donate when paying for their helicopter trip(optional). Thank you.
