Made famous by resident whales and dolphins, Kaikoura's best kept secret is it's incredible diversity of pelagic (ocean going) birds. Kaikoura is the albatross capital of the world with up to 14 different species visiting the area throughout the year.
The most amazing and unique feature of Kaikoura is the huge range of albatross and pelagic sea birds that can be sighted with just a 15 minute boat journey from the coast, making many normally inaccessible and elusive species easy reachable.

Travel time to these pelagic birds is just 5-15 minutes from the coastline and with a ten passenger maximum the tour is an intimate experience allowing very close proximity to these incredible birds.

Kaikoura, NZ: Dolphins, Fur Seals, and Albatross
We spent 5 days in Kaikoura while on a camper van road trip around the South Island of New Zealand. This place is fabulous for marine wildlife, so we tried to go on as many tours as possible! We swam with dusky dolphins (Dolphin Encounter) and NZ fur seals (Seal Swim Kaikoura). The Albatross Encounter was also super fun, and kind of a nice break from getting in the chilly water there.

This late afternoon, we are making our way to Dunedin’s wildlife hot spot, the Otago Peninsula. This time, we’re checking out the Royal Albatross Centre for a New Zealand wildlife experience with royal albatross and little blue penguins in Dunedin.
First, we take the Royal Albatross Centre tour where we get exclusive access to the royal albatross viewing hides where we can see royal albatross in their natural environment without disturbing them. We can’t believe how close we are getting to the albatross. It’s a unique wildlife experience in New Zealand!
We also tour the military battery of Taiaroa Head, before going to the Royal Albatross Cafe and waiting for our second tour at the Royal Albatross Centre, seeing little blue penguins on the Otago Peninsula.
When night falls, this is the best time to see the little blue penguins return in rafts back to their nests on Pilot Beach just below the Royal Albatross Centre. It’s one of the best places to watch little blue penguins in New Zealand.
So what do you think of the Royal Albatross Centre tours? Would you add them to your Dunedin travel itinerary? LUK in the comments.

Hope you guys enjoyed learning about my Top 5 things to do in Kaikoura! Let me know if you have any questions about anything mentioned in the video!
Kaikoura is an incredible little town on the east coast of New Zealand's South Island, and it is definitey a New Zealand Hidden Gem. The resiliency that the residents have shown over the past year has been nothing short of admirable. I wanted to show you guys why you need to visit Kaikoura! It is a nature lovers dream destination, and actually, there is something for everyone here. The Kaikoura earthquake really took its toll on the town over the past year, but they are open and ready for you to come and see them =)
Here is a list of all of the activities listed in the video, and links to their sites! I am not affiliated with any of these organisations, but I know many of the owners and they are fantastic people, and I just wanted to show them and the rest of Kaikoura some love by making this video.
