Today we are joining EcoSEAker for swimming with dolphins in New Zealand. Not only that but we are swimming with Hector’s dolphins, the world’s smallest species.
We head to Daly’s Wharf for our dolphin swimming tour in Akaroa. Within about 20 minutes we see our first pod of dolphins for dolphin swimming where we spend at least 45 minutes in the water with them. For the rest of the tour we see other wildlife in Akaroa such as seals, shags, penguins and albatross.
