🇳🇿Kaikoura: A Paradise for Whale Watchers and Nature Lovers

1. Jimmy Armers Beach 📍40, Fyffe Quay, Kaikoura Peninsula, Kaikoura 7300, New Zealand. 🪐 With minimal light pollution, the night sky here comes alive with countless stars, constellations, Milky Way and even the stunning Magellanic Clouds, two dwarf galaxies visible only in the Southern Hemisphere. 💫 We were lucky enough to catch many more of shooting stars by the beach side with background music provided by the ocean’s gentle waves. 2. Kaikoura beach (beach front motel) 📍Esplanade, Kaikoura 7300, New Zealand. 🌊 A breathtaking coastal town on New Zealand’s South Island, is a place where rugged mountains meet the vast Pacific Ocean, creating a scene of unmatched beauty. There are many hotels and motels along the Kaikoura beach. 🌠 We spent a night in Kaikoura. It was so peaceful and relaxing. We get to witness the beautiful scenery every time when we step out of our motel room. 3. Kaikoura whale watch 📍Whaleway station road, Kaikoura 7340, New Zealand. 🐳 Booked our whale watch tickets on trip.com platform. Unfortunately, the captain couldn’t hear any sound underwater and she failed to locate the whale due to foggy morning. But we managed to see dolphins, fur seals and seagulls. 🎫 80% of the ticket payment will be refunded by the whale watch company as our tour didn’t managed to see the whale. #kaikoura #newzealandtrip #newzealandnatural #whalewatching #milkyway #magellanicclouds #stargazing #shootingstars #sunrise #snowmountain #southernhemisphere #newzealand #whale #naturalwonders
