Seal Coast Safari

Embark on this unique and exciting exploration of Wellington’s natural wonders and rugged south coast. Although only a short drive from downtown, this destination will feel like another world and is even unknown to most locals. Travelling in air-conditioned 4WD Mercedes vehicles, you will pass some iconic Wellington landmarks on your way to the exclusive, private farm with sheep, cattle, and goats. Enjoy an exhilarating climb up the road and be amazed by stunning views of the Cook Strait, South Island, and Kaikoura Ranges while crossing farmland and fault lines through one of New Zealand’s oldest and largest stations. Once down to sea-level, you’ll traverse a rocky track to meet some much-loved locals – New Zealand Fur Seals. Observe these amazing animals as they sunbathe, play, and swim while learning about their history, ecology, and conservation from your friendly and knowledgeable guide all while enjoying a refreshing morning or afternoon tea. The Seal Coast Safari is a must-do for anyone who loves nature, wildlife, and really getting off the beaten track.
