Great experience for first time kayakers
William H5.0May 2024Cam was a fantastic guide and is clearly passionate about the area and the wildlife. For us it was a great introduction into kayaking and has made us keen to do more! Unfortunately we were pretty limited in the distance we could kayak due to the strong waves that day and didn't see much wildlife in the water itself. It didn't stop us from having a great time though and the experience was definitely worthwhile. Thanks again to Cam for always making sure we were comfortable and putting our safety first!Perfect day on the water!
Nadean L5.0Mar 2024We had perfect blue skies and calm water, so the morning was ideal! Our guide Brad was funny and knowledgeable and we just had a ball and learned so much about fur seals and the water!A fun little paddeling adventure in a stunning environment.

Paige W5.0Jan 2024Excellent crew. We got to see dolphins jumping all around us. Was an incredible experience, highly recommendedReal ocean experience, close to the water
Paul B5.0Jan 2024It was a great experience to kayak yourself on the pacific ocean near Kaikoura. There is a tension which sea animals you will see, for us it were a lot of seals, resting or swimming. Great guides too, for us it was Jasmin. The waves were quite strong, but very pleasant for us.
