Must-do family experience in Akaroa

A wonderful family experience in Akaroa! The sea kayaking was a good adventure, with beautiful views and friendly, knowledgeable guides who made us feel safe and welcome. Seeing the fur seals and pōhatu (little blue penguins) in their natural habitat was truly special, especially for the kids. Well organised, relaxed, and very respectful of wildlife. Highly recommended for families visiting Akaroa 🛶🐧

Great activity

Our guide Joey she is amazing and passionate and we saw lots of wildlife, including the smallest dolphins, which is not guaranteed (depending on your luck). Thank you Joey!

Don’t hesitate, just go! It’s so cool

Thank you Benoit and your team for this day, this experience, and all the explanations. By the way, you contribute to taking care of the penguins. If the weather it’s not ok they will tell you so go ahead 🤗
