A marine mecca and wildlife enthusiasts' wonderland
Kaikoura is a picturesque coastal town, rich in Maori history and culture, reflected in the Maori name, “Kai” meaning food, and “Koura” meaning crayfish. You shouldn’t leave here without tasting fresh crayfish and white bait, Nin’s Bin is a favourite spot amongst locals. Home to sea lions, dolphins, seals, albatrosses and whales.
For something a little extra special, take a scenic flight for a bird’s eye view of these magnificent animals cruising through their natural habitat. Sit back and relax on the outdoor seating or have a picnic on the lawn, overlooking the Pacific Ocean with the backdrop of the Seaward Kaikoura Mountain Ranges.
