Kia Ora,

We sincerely thank you for your patience and understanding as our community recovers from the recent significant weather event.

Our whale watching tours are operating as normal, subject to favourable sea and weather conditions.

TRAVEL ADVISORY:

Please note that State Highway 1 north and south of Kaikōura are open. A section of State Highway 1 south is down to one lane near Hawkeswood and is under stop/go temporary traffic management. Please expect delays along this route and plan your journey accordingly.

For the latest information on road conditions, please visit the NZ Transport Agency website before travelling. 

We look forward to welcoming you back to Whale Watch Kaikōura and thank you for your continued support.
