The whale watching boat in Kaikoura has two choices in the morning and noon. It takes about every 30 minutes. We booked a boat at noon. We drove from Christchurch to Kaikoura in the morning. It took two and a half hours to drive. After arriving at the visitor center, we simply had a lunch. Then each person took a Seareg, and as soon as the time arrived, the bus took us to the dock and took the boat to sea. We were lucky on this journey, just out of the sea, we met a sperm whale to come up to ventilate, after it sinks, we began to track its path, all the way for about 45 minutes, until the sound detector can not hear any sound, the captain said this shows it ended foraging began to float, Not long after seeing its figure again, sperm whales' territorial consciousness is very strong, not long ago it drove away a sperm whale larger than its own size, after all, its volume is about the same size as our ship, we can only observe quietly from a distance, everyone dare not even shout too loud. Although we can only see the back of sperm whales all the way, we have felt extremely shocking. After chasing the whale, we turned our heads to Goose Bay. More and more dolphins appeared on the bottom of our boat. The guide estimated that the number of more than 100 was enough. After landing, I was already hungry. Fortunately, I booked The Pier on the boat. I immediately placed an order at five o'clock. My daughter killed half of Kaikula's local lobster by herself. It is indeed well-deserved. Not only the ingredients are fresh, but the taste is particularly good. It's a tough thing for the Kiwis.

    If you don't see it, you can also say that you can see it! That's the case after seeing it! But also said that it is recommended to see it! After all, it is an experience! We caught up with the rain and were always worried that it would be cancelled or we could not see the whale. Fortunately, we set off on time, and saw the third stop, which was a bit far away! Need a telescope or telephoto lens

    Let me talk about the key points: be sure to prepare seasickness medicine in advance! Eat seasickness medicine! There were seasickness medicine before, but this time it may be the reason for the big waves. I vomited to death. I vomited three times! After vomiting, I have to go to the deck to see whales and dolphins! Because I really don't want to miss it! The whole process is actually very beautiful! It's just that the seasickness is too bad! Good luck! Seeing whales and swarms of dolphins! Whale tails are also seen! Although there is only one! Although it is just a small whale! But it is already very content! Can see is luck! Finally, the staff on the boat are beautiful young ladies and handsome young men! Also very friendly and enthusiastic! Half of seasickness! vomiting constantly! But these staff work hard! Give them a thumbs up!

    This is so interesting and so much to look forward to. The moment the whale leaps out of the water, the whole boat is screaming. It is really hard to imagine such a big behemoth appearing in front of you.

    We saw whales, but they were far away and the shots were not clear. I saw a lot of dolphins and I was still swimming downstream from my boat. The whole is OK.

    Whale watching requires luck and boats are rocking, but by the end of the day, you can see many dolphins.
