Our sunset kayaking was cancelled due to windy weather. And our trip was re-scheduled to the next morning. It was a fantastic morning kayaking with seals and waves on the sea and we were the only group that morning. Really nice experience and I think I'll book again for a sunset trip when I go to Kaikoura again.
Was great. Was lucky enough to see the dolphins too. Friendly guide and great experience. Paddle kayaks wet easy to manoeuvre . Thanks again team
Cheers George What a beautiful evening it was to. Thanks so much for coming to experience what pedal kayaks are all about and it sounds like the wildlife really turned it on aswell. Thanks from the team at Seal Kayak Kaikōura
We had a wonderful trip with Seal Kayaks Kaikoura. The pedal system is easy and the kayaks top notch. The water, weather, wild life and sunset all stunning. I’ll definitely do this trip again.
Cheers Beth Pleasure to have you out there with us, sounds like a magical evenning, come again any time :) Thanks from the team at Seal Kayak Kaikōura
What a great way to see the seals. This is our third trip to Kaikoura, but our first kayak tour, and we're so glad we chose the pedal kayaks! We own a kayak, and my hubby and I are always arguing about getting the paddling in sync....no such issues with these kayaks! So easy to pedal and that leaves your hands totally free for taking photos! Perfection. Logan and Connor were our guides, they were super knowledgeable and very friendly. They made the whole experience so much better, I didn't even get my feet wet!!! Highly, highly recommend - will defn come back in the future.
Thanks heaps for the great review Appreciate you coming out and spending the evening with us, you guys were great! The pedals really are a game changer and they change the mind of seasoned regular kayakers every day. So stoked you had a great time in Kaikōura and continue to keep coming back. Thanks from the team at Seal Kayak Kaikōura

Seals, Smiles, and Stunning Scenery!
From start to finish, this was an incredible experience! Our guides were charismatic, knowledgeable, and made the entire tour so much fun. Paddling (or rather pedalling!) along the Kaikōura coastline was breathtaking, and getting up close to the seals in their natural habitat was unforgettable. The pedal kayaks were an interesting twist, although I personally would have preferred traditional paddles. We also spotted other marine life during the tour, which was an unexpected and amazing bonus! One small note: if you’re in an odd-numbered group, you may need to share a kayak with another solo traveller. I didn’t mind, but would have preferred my own. Overall, an absolutely fantastic experience and a must-do when visiting Kaikōura!
