Join us on an unforgettable sailing adventure, getting up close with Akaroa’s wildlife, including the Hector Dolphin with real sailing on the Pacific Ocean!
Very enjoyable experience. Crew are easygoing and friendly. Saw the dolphins several times. Well worth it. Very relaxing return journey with the sails billowing.
Great afternoon cruising the crew were very knowledgeable about the local environment and history. We saw seals bird life and Hectors dolphins a enjoyable time on a classic old ketch
A great way to see the wildlife - including Hectors dolphins - while enjoying the cruise and commentary. Very worthwhile!
