I will come again next time

A very fulfilling experience. I thought it would be very dangerous, but in reality it's not at all. Even if I can't swim, I can still have a lot of fun. Simply control the pedal with foot that’s enough. I was excited to see seals and dolphins playing in the sea. I think I will come again next time, completely basking in the sunshine and enjoying the taste of the sea breeze. The staff are very enthusiastic and patient.

Best Experience Ever!!

This experience is definitely a 10/10 for me. Pedal kayak made it so easy to move around the area while your hands are free to take photos! The activity is 3 hours long and I enjoyed every second of it. Our tour guides are friendly and knowledgeable of the area. And i guess it's just luck as we managed to see dusky dolphins on our way to the seals. I definitely recommend booking this activity when you visit Kaikoura. You will not even get your feet wet ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Must do Kayaking in Kaikoura!

Fantastic and organised tour by Connor! Got to know more about Kaikoura’s history through the tour and even got to see a seal regulating its temperature! Definitely recommend everyone to kayak with Seal Kayak Kaikōura! 😄

Amazing experience! We didn’t have to puddle with our hands, so we weren’t tired, and we got to see beautiful nature and we loved the experience.

So much fun

Our guide was very knowledgeable and great in explaining the wildlife around us. We got so lucky with the weather and even some dusky dolphins came to say hi. I had an amazing kayaking experience as it was the first time for me trying out the foot paddles. Would highly recommend to anyone who loves to spend some fun times on the water.
