Akaroa Guided Kayak Safaris offer a variety of excursions on 17 miles of stunning waters just 80 minutes from Christchurch. Embrace your adventurous spirit and enjoy a personalised guided tour to experience the best of the area and learn about some of the rarest wildlife in the world. 

Starting at 7.30am, tours vary from early morning nature safaris to casual kayak paddle cruises in the flooded volcanic bay that surrounds the post-colonial harbour-town of Akaroa.

All packages include introductions to sea kayaking, safety briefings and a personal guide for the day to help you explore all the pockets of wildlife that flourish in the hilly crevices of Akaroa's long bay.

A minimum age of 12 years is recommended for all participants.
