Cheerleaders Go Swimming With Dolphins In Akaroa New Zealand
If you call us on 0800 436 574 and quote 'Maidens' when making a dolphin swim booking we'll give you 10% OFF between now and March 31st, 2014!I
Black Cat Cruises had the pleasure of taking the Maidens Cheerleaders dolphin swimming over in Akaroa this summer. The Maidens are the team cheerleaders for Canterbury's famous rugby team the Crusaders, who are based in Christchurch, New Zealand.
We transported the girls from Christchurch to Akaroa, taking in the scenic views of Banks Peninsula along the way. The 90 minute scenic drive is an adventure in itself and Akaroa is one of the top destinations to visit when in Christchurch.
Once in Akaroa the cheerleaders checked in, suited up, received a safety briefing and then it was onto the Black Cat boat for a once in a lifetime experience to remember -- swimming with the Hector's dolphins.
The Hector's dolphins are the not only the world's smallest, but also the world's rarest dolphin, and Akaroa is the only place in the world that you can take this trip with them. Swimming with the Hector's in their natural habitat truly is a unique experience. There's something very special about swimming with them in the wild and the girls used just one word each, which we have shared in this video, to sum up how they felt when they arrived back on the wharf.
To book a swim for yourself or a friend, or to simply find out more information about Black Cats experiences on the water visit blackcat.co.nz.
Ooo and did you know...our dolphin swimming experience has just been recommended by Lonely Planet as one of the 'Top Ten Marine Mammal Encounters' in the world!

For more information & to book:
With Black Cat Cruises you will enjoy an incredible experience, swimming with some of the world's smallest, friendliest and rarest dolphins. Hector's Dolphins are protected in Akaroa Harbour by a marine mammal sanctuary and our cruise gives you the chance to see these beautiful marine mammals up close.
Akaroa Harbour is the flooded crater of an extinct volcano. Apart from the huge and awe-inspiring volcanic cliffs, this also means that the harbour is very sheltered. A lot of the time, especially in summer, your dolphin swim will be inside the sheltered harbour. Black Cat's Dolphin Swimming adventure allows only 12 swimmers per vessel, so you'll have more chances to come face to face with the dolphins. Of course if you would prefer not to swim then you can sit back, relax and watch these magnificent mammals interact with the swimmers from the comfort and safety of the boat.
Black Cat was the first cruise boat company in the world to get the coveted Green Globe 21, an international programme to ensure best environmental practices.
