Discover spectacular scenery while spotting majestic whales and wildlife on the most captivating flight of your life!
Fly over stunning Kaikoura and soak up incredible views of the mountains and sea, while enjoying a unique birds-eye view of fascinating whales and wildlife from the comfort of a helicopter.
We'll head out from the Kaikoura airport and fly straight over the Whale Sanctuary where you'll have the opportunity to see sperm whales, humpback whales, killer whales, southern right whales, and possibly even blue whales! You can appreciate the beauty of these magnificent creatures from top to tail as the helicopter slowly orbits above the animals giving you a unique insight into their world.
As we fly, you'll discover stunning vistas of the Seaward Kaikoura Mountain Ranges and the Kaikoura Peninsula, before we explore the coastline to look for more wildlife.
You'll enjoy a unique view of the friendly New Zealand fur seals and dusky dolphins, and if there is time permitting your pilot will take you to an amazing landing site only accessible by South Pacific Helicopters, where you can get out and appreciate first hand the incredible scenic views before you.
This is a once in a lifetime experience not to be missed!

The whole experience was fantastic The customer care is amazing. Very helpful and knowledgable.
Great trip. Pilot was full of good information, made every effort (and succeeded) to find a whale for us to see. We landed on high ground looking out over Kaikoura and the surrounding areas. Would definitely recommend others to fly with this company.
Unfortunately our flight was cancelled as the helicopter needed 2 FULL paying passengers as well as the discounted ‘book me’ passengers. We understood that from a business perspective and unfortunately there are no overseas tourists around. But the staff at the helicopter business were great, courteous, and gave us other options ( pay full fare, take the plane flight out, get refund,etc) So basically the book me fares are only “ seat-fillers”. But that’s ok, we’ll try it another day.
Lovely, thanks
