Whale Watching with Air Kaikoura

View the worlds largest predator from the air!

Whale Watching in Kaikoura will be a highlight of your trip to Kaikoura. Air Kaikoura Aero Club was the first to offer Whale Watching flights in Kaikoura and for the last 30 years has been providing amazing whale experiences. Let Murray and his friendly team of pilots take you out over the Kaikoura Sea Canyon to view the mighty Sperm whale, from the tip to the tail.  

Air Kaikoura is the longest running, most experienced operator in Kaikoura and boasts the highest success rate at finding whales.  There is an opportunity to see other marine and mammal wildlife on your trip and the option to extend your flight to give you the best chance of success. Air Kaikoura guarantees a flight with a minimum of two passengers, and our fleet includes our newest addition, the 8 seater GA-8 Airvan, a high wing aircraft perfect for scenic flights.
