If your NZ summer holiday includes a South Island visit then you must include a visit to Kaikoura (between Christchurch and Picton) to view the mighty Sperm whale that can be seen year round in this unspoilt part of coastal New Zealand.

Kaikoura Helicopters is devoted to the Kaikoura Whale Watch and is proud to provide local and international visitors and film crews with ample opportunities to view the mighty Sperm whale all year round within the safety and comfort of our modern fleet of helicopters.

Their experienced pilots can quickly have you within the whale watching area so you can enjoy the ultimate 'birds eye' whale watching view, along with opportunities to view other sea life such as seal colonies, dolphins and wild birdlife.
