Swimming With Dolphins
With Black Cat Cruises you will enjoy an incredible experience, swimming with some of the world's smallest, friendliest and rarest dolphins. Hector's Dolphins are protected in Akaroa Harbour by a marine mammal sanctuary and our cruise gives you the chance to see these beautiful marine mammals close up.
* Black Cat's Dolphin Swimming adventure allows only 10 swimmers per vessel, so you'll have more chances to come face to face with the dolphins
* We operate up to 16 cruises per day November – March (Summer), up to 8 per day in April and October and 1 per day May – September (Winter)
* With only 10 swimmers allowed per vessel, cruises are frequently sold out, which makes it essential for you to book in advance
* Black Cat's dolphin swimming cruises cost $139 per adult and $115 per child. If you don't want to swim, you can watch from the swim boats for $72 per adult and $35 per child. All prices are quoted in New Zealand dollars and include GST (goods and service tax).
* Akaroa Harbour is the flooded crater of an extinct volcano. Apart from the huge and awe-inspiring volcanic cliffs, this also means that the harbour is very sheltered. A lot of the time, especially in summer, your dolphin swim will be inside the sheltered harbour.
* Black Cat was the first cruise boat company in the world to get the coveted Green Globe 21, an international programme to ensure best environmental practices.
