Amazing time swimming with dusky dolphins! I've swum twice now with this company and it's well worth the price, just make sure to book early as only 16 people can swim per boat and they fill up weeks in advance. Nice boats, warm wetsuits, attentive staff, and they seem very respectful towards the dolphins so no harmful pressure is put on the animals. Kaikoura is a particularly great place to swim as the dusky dolphins in the area are very inquisitive so will come up and interact with you.
Really worth the cost. They make all the efforts possible for our best encounter with dolphines. Very friendly and helpful staffs. Special thanks to Tracy - our tour guide, who took best care of me when I got sea sick. And even special thanks to Claudia , my group mate, for taking care of me. Thank you Dolphins Encounter Kaikoura for this amazing experience - Sumi
Was a fantastic adventure. I wasn't sure I was going to do this when first looking at suggested options for my whistle stop tour of the South Island. However when we made better progress than first thought, had to skip Milford Sound due to avalanches. I thought I might as well. Absolutely amazing. Unbelievable encounters with dolphins. They look you square in the eye. Dance around you. And then race along with the boat. If only I could post my GoPro videos on here for you to see... You'd jump at the chance to do it.
Swimming with dolphins was like a childhood dream that was finally coming true! The price is not excessive and the experience was great! My only regret is that my diving mask was not suitable at all, even changing it several times. The water was seeping all the time and I ended up swimming by holding it and going up all the time to see properly. This somewhat upset my experience as I wasting precious time in the water to constantly remove water from my mask. But it was still magic and I was happy ! After the dive, there is also some time to see the dolphins and photograph them, that's cool !
Fantastic experience! We found a friendly pod of over 200 dolphins that were keen to play and interact. The equipment was really good quality, they even made special provisions for me due to circulation issues which meant I could stay in the water longer. David & Ali were great and made sure everyone was safe, comfortable and enjoyed the encounters. The most important thing was the company ethos about interacting with wildlife. Everything was on the dolphin's terms, they don't feed or bribe them in any way. If they weren't interested then we moved on, there was no question of chasing them. Pilot Vic did a brilliant job of positioning the boat to allow the dolphins to chose.
Really good experience. Dolphins came right up to the group and were swimming around everywhere. Very unique experience and would highly recommend.
What an amazing experience !!! Thank you to the amazing staff that made this one of the most mind blowing things I’ve ever done. A must for all visitors to the South Island. Swim with Dolphins it’s something you will never forget
