Why Guided? With over 17 hectares of stunning bays and inlets, you'd be crazy to go without a knowledgeable local guide. Instead of paddling in circles, and looking for a needle in a haystack, your knowledgeable, qualified local guide will show you all the secret spots, including when and where to go to maximise your time on the water, and most importantly they will keep you safe in New Zealand's ever-changing weather conditions.
Seventy-five kilometres from Christchurch, Akaroa is a historic French settlement nestled in the heart of an ancient volcano. The clean, sparkling water of the harbour is the home to a variety of amazing sea life, including the Hector dolphin – the world’s smallest dolphin – as well as a variety of seabirds, seals and little white-flippered penguins.
You don’t need any previous kayaking experience but you do need a basic level of fitness and you may need to carry your kayak a short distance with your paddling partner. Groups are small, with a maximum of 14 guests per safari, we travel in double sea kayaks which are very stable. You’ll listen to a comprehensive safety briefing before you start, so you’ll be safe and secure and confident during your safari.
