Fly through the skies and experience the true scale and majestic beauty of the world's largest mammal, the whale! Whale watching by aeroplane offers a unique perspective and the opportunity to view whales and dolphins in their natural environment.
Wings Over Whales Kaikoura provide whale watching flights, scenic mountain tours and private aircraft charter. Our professional and experienced team deliver a friendly flying experience, where the comfort and safety of each passenger is paramount.
Passengers are able to enjoy their own window seat and our high-winged aircraft will allow you to have an unobstructed view of Kaikoura’s marine wild life and incredible scenery. We operate two aircraft; a 4 seat Cessna 172 and an 8 seat, Gippsland Airvan. Our planes are designed with sightseeing in mind with large dome shaped windows that are perfect for photography.
Wings Over Whales operate from Kaikoura Airport, an 8km drive south from Kaikoura town centre. Located in an inviting log cabin terminal, customers can enjoy great facilities with on-site gift shop, café and rest room facilities.
Visitors are encouraged to allow 1 hour to complete either their whale watching or scenic flight experience. An information and safety briefing is conducted prior to travel and all scenic flights are 30 minutes in duration unless an alternative length of trip has been agreed on.
We welcome individuals, groups and also those with children, infants and limited mobility.
