Perfect day

Good time on the water. Had to see a seal fighting with an octopus, it was amazing. The guide was very interesting and had the answers to all our questions. The pedal kayak is easier than the usual one. I recommend.

One of the highlights of our 16 day trip around NZ.

Did the sunset tour with our two teens aged 14 and 16. It was the highlight of the trip for our boys-they rated it higher than the dolphin swim! . We all loved the ease of the paddle kayaks and watching the seals and of...More

We are traveling from Picton via Motorhome and Kailoura is our first stop/camp. Your tour looks amazing and right up our alley. You said you were open over winter (June) so that’s great news. How is the area and roads since the earthquake? We are a family of four(daughters 7 and 9) from Kauai Hawaii

Hiya! the roads have been ok but after strong wet weather they are likely to be closed as the slips may come down, but if the weather is fine the roads are great to use. :)
