Whale Watch, Kaikoura, South Island, New Zealand
A Sperm Whale blows water out of it's blow hole while breathing on the surface before diving. The whale is viewed from a Whale Watch boat. Whale Watch is New Zealand's only marine-based whale watching company offering visitors an exciting up-close encounter with the Giant Sperm Whales at all times of the year and is one of New Zealand's star attractions. Whale Watch scheduled tours operate daily from the town of Kaikoura , two and a half-hours north of Christchurch in New Zealand's South Island. Kaikoura has lush pastures and towering, snow covered peaks that fall to the sea. Offshore a deep undersea canyon combines with unusual sea currents to attract an extraordinary abundance of marine life, the most famous being the Sperm Whale.
