Kaikoura is a town in New Zealand.
The Maori name is Te Ahi-kai-koura-a-Tama-ki-te-rangi
A stunningly beautiful seaside town on the east coast of the south island approx half-way between Blenheim and Christchurch. Beautiful crescent-shaped bay right in town, great for swimming. Fantastic place for beach combing. Just north of town the mountains literally meet the sea.
Things to to see and do
[edit]- Beachcombe for interesting pebbles on the beach behind the shops.
- Walk out to the seal colony.
- Walk around the peninsula from the seal colony to South Bay. Huge variety of birdlife.
- Hike up Mount Fyfe - strenuous full day hike.
- There are many commercial tours operating eg ‘Swim with Seals’, ‘Swim with Dolphins’, ‘Whale Watch Tours’, "Kayak with Seals'.
- Highly recommended is a trip with Kaikoura Kayaks - 0800 452 456 for bookings and info.
