A dream for many of us is to visit dolphins in the wild! Since the summer of 1989 Encounter Kaikoura has operated two boat based activities: Dolphin Encounter and Albatross Encounter.
Dolphin Encounter operate tours to the dusky dolphins, found traditionally quite close to shore at Kaikoura. Whether you choose to view from the boat or swim in the dolphin’s natural environment, you will have a unique experience that will stay with you for a lifetime!
Dolphin Encounter’s point of difference is the fact that they have the highest success rate for locating the marine mammals and swimming with dolphins than anywhere in New Zealand! Numbers of dusky dolphins vary depending on the time of year and weather conditions, but generally pods from 100 dolphins to 1000 dolphins can be found off the Kaikoura Coast.
Kaikoura is a seaside town on the east coast of the south island, just two and a half hours drive north of Christchurch. The Encounter Kaikoura complex has a cafe and gallery displaying the work of local artists. You will be transported from the Encounter Kaikoura complex at 96 Esplanade to the departure point of the boats.
