Kaikoura Scenic Flight
Classic Whalewatch - 3o mins duration
Only with Kaikoura Helicopters, will you get to see the entire whale from head to tail, as we hover and fly slow orbits. Put yourself in the ultimate vantage point, as we fly you in comfort and style for 30 minutes in the spectacular environment that plays host to one of the world’s largest marine mammals, the magnificent Sperm Whale.
Gain knowledge on the mighty Sperm Whale during a personal 20 minute briefing, before departing our beachfront heli pads.
As we lift off, you will be treated to breathtaking views of the rugged Kaikoura Coastline and within 3 – 5 minutes you will be flying above Kaikoura’s deep-sea canyon, searching for a Giant Sperm Whale as he breaks the surface. You will be captivated by the remarkable view and photo opportunity of the entire whale from head to tail, as we hover and fly slow orbits uninterruptedly above him.
Alpine Explorer - 25 mins - Includes 1 Alpine Landing (optional coastal landing if alpine weather conditions are not suitable)
Lift off from our beachfront heli-pads, fly over the township and around the peninsula. Experience unmatched views of Kaikoura through the large bubble windows of the helicopter. Track across the bay, over lush green farmlands and get in amongst the sheer beauty of New Zealand’s fastest growing mountain range – the Kaikoura Seaward Ranges. As we track up the southwest side of Mt Fyffe, you will encounter dramatic views and photo opportunity of the snow capped peaks that tower above you. We will touch down at 3700ft - Mt Fyffe Hut. Here we will shut down the helicopter. As you wonder around, breathe the fresh air and soak up 360 degrees of mind blowing, panoramic views.
