The previous time or two that Tisa and I had been in Kaikoura, we unsuccessfully tried to do some whale watching from the whale boat. Unfortunately and once again, we were unable to do it as a result of bad weather and strong seas.
Sean and I decided that it would be worth it to take one of the 30 minute whale watching helicopter tours.
In hindsight, we should have asked him not to worry about finding any whales as the real joy was cruising around in a helicopter, a first for both Sean and I.
