Kaikoura has a greater variety of seabird species within a small area than anywhere along the New Zealand coastline. It is Kaikoura's proximity to the deep ocean canyon systems which is largely responsible for providing the abundant wildlife which has led to Kaikoura becoming a "must visit" destination.
A large array of seabirds can be found within easy reach of our shores with rare and endangered species of birds readily observed. The Albatross Encounter enables you to be within very close proximity to the birds, allowing for some fantastic photo opportunities.
