Akaroa Harbour showcases its dolphins, penguins, seals and seabirds

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Akaroa, a quaint village nestled in the South Island’s Banks Peninsula, is home to some of New Zealand’s rarest wildlife.

Seeing the likes of the nationally vulnerable Hector’s Dolphin, little blue penguins and fur seals in their natural habitat is something special.

There are numerous ways to get on to Akaroa Harbour and today we head out on Akaroa Dolphins’ rather swanky boat.

The company boasts a 98 per cent chance of seeing Hector’s dolphins, so expectations are high.
