Kaikoura Albatross Encounter

Kaikoura Albatross Encounter

Experience the sensation of getting close to the mighty Albatross, one of the world's largest flight birds.


Although famous for its resident whales and dolphins, Kaikoura's best kept secret is its incredible diversity of pelagic (ocean going) birds. Kaikoura is the albatross capital of the world with up to 14 different species visiting the area throughout the year. Experience the sensation of getting close to the mighty Albatross, one of the world's largest flight birds. This tour involves feeding and observing the large pelagic birds of the Kaikoura coastline, including Northern and Southern Albatross, Petrels and occasionally some varieties of Penguins. Travel time out to where you begin to see seabirds can be anywhere from a few minutes to 30 minutes.
