In a typical 30 minute flight you will see the majestic Sperm Whale preparing for his next dive and up to 500 Dusky Dolphins cavorting with each other. On occasion sightings include Southern Right, Humpback, Fin, Sei, Brydes, Pilot, Southern Bottlenose and the mighty Blue Whales, and also Common, Hectors, Risso's and Southern Right Whale Dolphins and of course, Orca, although these are all less frequent visitors to the area.

You may also fly over Kaikoura Peninsula and see evidence of Maori fortifications (Pa sites), New Zealand Fur Seals resting and the Kaikoura township itself.

For some, conditions will allow a spectacular flight over the Seaward Kaikoura Ranges rising to approximately 2800m.

After the flight relax in the log terminal over a light meal and drink. An upstairs lounge looks over the sea and local mountains. The gift shop offers momentos of your experience.

Wings over Whales provide a comfortable flight, experienced pilots giving an authoritative inflight commentary, at a reasonable cost.

Wings over Whales has a sighting rate in excess of 95% for Sperm Whales and a cancellation rate of less than 5%, unmatched by others!
