How wonderful it is !

乘著風出海,可以看到小海豚,幸運的話還有海獅和企鵝?,雖然海風很冷但在船上喝著熱飲尋找這些可愛生物,船長這一趟很值得!

Excellent Experience

We have been on this tour previously in 2021 and it never fails to deliver. We saw seals, penguins and many dolphins just as advertised, the commentary was also very informative. I would reccomend a trip on the Fox 2 whilst in Akaroa.
