Eco-tourism pioneers Black Cat Cruises offer two mullti-award winning New Zealand experiences.

Join either their 'Akaroa Harbour Nature Cruise' or go 'Swimming With Dolphins'.

Akaroa harbour is home to the Hector's dolphins, the worlds rarest and smallest. You will also only find them in New Zealand making both trips a once in a lifetime bucket list experience.The endangered species is encountered every single day so we offer a dolphin guarantee on both of our activities. Please visit our website for more details.

Based on the Banks Peninsula we are just a 90 minute scenic drive from Christchurch.
