Top Services for Water Activities in Kaikoura

Bring a waterproof bag for your stuff. I thought the kayaks were more spacious, but with little room, my things got a bit damp. A simple daypack or dry bag would go a long way.

If you can, grab some snacks or a light lunch to bring along. There's not much nearby once you get out there, and having something to munch on during breaks was super helpful.

You should definitely check the weather before heading out! We had planned for a sunny day, but winds changed everything. I suggest going early in the morning around 8 AM for calmer waters and a chance to see more wildlife.
