Paddling with Wildlife

Of all the physical adventures I've tried in the course of writing the travel guide, Frommers New Zealand, kayaking is near the very top of my list of favourites. There are so many great stretches of water in this country that are perfect for kayaking - though few are richer in wildlife and unexpected surprises than the Kaikoura Peninsular. If you paddle out with the team from Kaikoura Kayaks you'll likely be joined - very quickly - by nosey-parker New Zealand Fur Seals. They love to join in the fun and you can get some great photographs. http://www.kaikourakayaks.co.nz/
